The CGC Sheetrock Fiberglass Drywall Tape is a professional-grade reinforcing tape designed for strong, long-lasting drywall joints and repairs. Unlike traditional paper tape, this self-adhesive fiberglass mesh bonds directly to the surface, saving time while reducing joint failure. As a result, contractors and renovators across Ontario and the Greater Toronto Area rely on it for demanding residential and commercial projects.

Because the tape uses chemically treated glass-fiber yarn, it naturally resists mold, mildew, and moisture damage. This makes it an excellent choice for bathrooms, kitchens, basements, and tile installations where humidity is a concern.

Key Features

This drywall tape combines durability, speed, and reliability:

• Self-adhesive fiberglass mesh for fast application

• Mold- and mildew-resistant synthetic material

• Strong crack resistance for long-term durability

• Ideal for drywall, cement board, and plaster repairs

• Compatible with setting-type joint compounds

• Professional grade, contractor trusted

• Suitable for residential and commercial use

Technical Specifications

CGC manufactures this tape using chemically treated fiberglass yarn, which provides strength without swelling or weakening when exposed to moisture. The open mesh design allows joint compound to penetrate fully, creating a reinforced bond at drywall seams.

Unlike paper tape, fiberglass mesh does not blister or bubble when applied correctly. When paired with a setting-type compound such as Durabond® or Sheetrock® 90, it forms a rigid, rock-hard joint that exceeds standard drywall performance expectations.

Installation & Usage Guide

For best results, follow these steps:

3. Press firmly to ensure proper adhesion
