Is Pulling Tape the Same as Mule Tape?

Pull tape is another name for mule tape. The “pull tape” came from the fact that it’s used to pull heavy loads. So how did it get its name, “mule tape?”

The exact origin is unclear. Some theorize it’s because mule tape is traditionally used to help route wires in walls, much like how mules (the animal) have traditionally helped map long distances.

How Strong Is Mule Tape?

Mule or pull tape strength varies between 400 lb and 6000 lb, but all mule tape products will have a specific weight limit, like 1,250 lb and 2,500 lb, or the 1,800 lb Polyester Mule Tape. Weight classes denote internal tensile strength, which is the maximum load an object or material can withstand before its breaking point.

How Long Is Mule Tape?

Mule tape lengths vary greatly between 100, 300, 500, and 3,000 ft long, making it easy to choose the right rope for your needs. Unless you’re going to rappel or set up a perimeter around your campsite, a 100 ft rope will do the job.

What Material is Mule Tape?

Most mule or pull tape is made from low-stretch polyester or yarn fibers that are shaped to disperse the pulling load. Polyester is a synthetic material that can be created to fit specific needs due to its low fiber stretch, which is why it’s the most common material used for mule tape. If you tear open mule tape, you’ll notice flat rope and fibers, which help distribute the heat more evenly so that there is reduced friction.
