Kwakunemikhiqizo eminingi yokunamathela esanda kusungulwa ngekhulu lama-20.Futhi izinto ezidonsa amehlo kakhulu kuyo kwakuyi-Seal Tape, eyasungulwa nguRichard Drew ngo-1925.
Kunezendlalelo ezintathu ezibalulekile kutheyiphu yokuvala eyasungulwa nguLu.Ungqimba oluphakathi luyi-cellophane, ipulasitiki eyenziwe nge-pulp yokhuni, enikeza i-tape amandla omshini nokucaca.Ingqimba engezansi ye-tape iyingqimba yokunamathisela, futhi isendlalelo esiphezulu sibaluleke kakhulu.Iwungqimba lwezinto ezinganamatheli.Izinto eziningi zine-tension ephansi kakhulu lapho zithintana nazo futhi azikwazi ukuzimanzisa kalula (ngakho-ke sizozisebenzisa ukwenza amapani anganamathelani).Ukuyisebenzisa ku-tape kuyindlela emangalisayo ngempela, okusho ukuthi i-tape ingaxhunyaniswa ngokwayo, kodwa ngeke inamathele komunye nomunye unomphela, ukuze yenziwe ibe yimiqulu ye-tape.
Kubantu abangakwazi ukuklebhula iteyiphu, kufanele bathande ukusebenzisa itheyiphu kagesi, engadatshulwa ngaphandle kwesikelo.Ngenxa yokuthi imicu yendwangu igijima kuwo wonke umqulu we-tape ukuze iqiniswe, yenza kube lula ukudabula.Ngesikhathi esifanayo, i-tape kagesi nayo iyisidingo sansuku zonke sabasebenza ngogesi.

Amandla we-tape avela ku-fiber yendwangu, futhi ukunamathela nokuguquguquka kuvela epulasitiki kanye nesendlalelo sokunamathela.
