I need 3″ tape cores and 3″ label cores…yesterday!

As a manufacturer, we make everything to order. This means we do not keep any tubes, cores, or edge protectors in stock. Distributors keep stock on their warehouse floors and deliver to end users on demand. When a customer sends a Purchase Order and payment, it takes us around 14 days (fewer days for some products) to produce that order, then ship it.

Tape cores and label cores are a bit different.

The most common inside diameter for tape cores and label cores is 3″. The most common wall thickness is .125″. The length, however, varies.

For this reason, we make 3″ ID tape cores and 3″ ID label cores available for purchase directly from our website. No need to send a Purchase Order and wait two weeks.

5 Steps to Order Tape Cores and Label Cores

  1. Visit our website
  2. Select how many boxes you want
  3. Select your preferred UPS service
  4. Complete your order
  5. Receive your cores via UPS

3 inch diameter tape cores and label cores

When it comes to spiral paper tubes, the most common inside diameter is 3 inches. But why?

When you order egg bites from Starbucks, the barista peels a sticker off of a roll of stickers, and adheres it to the outside of the paper bag you’re handed. When you’re walking around a convention and get handed a free promotional sticker by one of the vendors, they peel the sticker off of a roll of stickers. When you’re clicking around on eBay and order a cool, rare poster, the seller carefully rolls that poster up and slides it into a poster tube with a 3″ diameter.

Tape manufacturers and label manufacturers most often wrap their products around a spiral paper tube with a 3″ diameter.

Further down the supply chain, these 3″ diameter paper tubes and paper cores also fit a wide variety of tooling and machinery.
