Author Topic: Splicing tape; Who is left? Louis Bornwasser Film God Posts: 4441 From: prospect ky usa Registered: Mar 2005 posted 12-25-2008 10:59 AM                        Neumade has been "out" since June. Lenny Dickstein does not answer. These are (were) the brands I sell (sold.) Any ideas? Louis  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

JacRoe is definitely "in-stock" You'll find that: 160-2001 SPLYCEMAR SPLICING TAPE - CLEAR - per roll (8 rolls per pack) 160-2002 SPLYCEMAR SPLICING TAPE - YELLOW - per roll (8 rolls per pack) 160-2003 SPLYCEMAR SPLICING TAPE - ZEBRA - per roll (8 rolls per pack) Are identical to "Neumade" as they are also supplied by Tokyo Seiki but to Marble (Cinema Equipment Corp). http://www.tokyoseiki.com/splicing_tape_eng2.htm Marble also has genuine 35SS splicers (see Brad's review of the splicers and tape here on Film-Tech, Film-Tech Splycemar Review Honestly though...we have not had any Neumade product difficulties with tape cabinets or splicers...and we have taken deliverly on less common units like the 16SW and 35CS.

Tape only, not splicers.

Just want to be sure I understand correctly before I order, but are you saying that Marble brand tape is the same as Neumade/Splycemar (form the same source)? I only ask cause I'm tired of waiting for Neumade to restock and I can't stand Jack Roe tape.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 01-31-2010 09:48 PM                     Marble distributes two different types...one is the Jack Roe style but with Marble's name...they also distribute Splycemar tape...that IS the same as Neumade. Note too... Film-Tech now distributes the good tape as well as some of the "special" versions of the splicer (8-perf, for instance). Support this site...order from your Film-Tech dealer!

We haven't got the dealer letters out yet, so your dealer might not know about it just yet. Should be sometime in the next week'ish.  |  IP: Logged Bill Enos Film God Posts: 2081 From: Richmond, Virginia, USA Registered: Apr 2000 posted 02-02-2010 01:51 PM                     Is this new "Neumade/Splycemar" tape actually sticky enough to hold? The last Neumade I had came loose several times from clean non oily film.  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Weigel Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1062 From: Edmond, OK, USA Registered: Mar 2007 posted 02-02-2010 02:07 PM                     I have not experienced any splices coming apart with Neumade tapes (yellow & clear).  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-03-2010 01:19 AM                     I hate neumade tape as loops always come apart I use Jack Roe If Brads tape is as as strong of adhesive as the ROe tape then good  |  IP: Logged Jack Theakston Master Film Handler Posts: 411 From: New York, USA Registered: Sep 2007 posted 02-03-2010 05:55 AM                     Any idea who sells pre-perfed? I prefer to use a butt splicer over a guillotine and the last batch I bought from MPE stinks-- no grip to the adhesive at all. The stuff I used to like was the 3M stock that came on a cardboard roll. Anyone making this anymore or does anyone want to sell me old stock?  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!! Posts: 12814 From: Annapolis, MD Registered: Dec 1999 posted 02-03-2010 06:26 AM                     "Brad's tape" is the same as Neumade (same model/manufacturer). If the splice area is clean and oil-free...then the tape will hold quite well.

Who makes the splice tape that Ballenswine sends out with their projectors..it is surprisingly good quality. Anyone know who makes it?  |  IP: Logged
