I need 250 ft of mule tape for a project

[Blaze]

I can only find large rolls of 3000ft plus. Only need about 250 ft for a greenhouse project.

Google 300 foot measuring tape on Amazon for more choices and lower prices.

Neptco has a couple varieties that come in 1000' rolls.

What does a measuring tape have to do with mule tape? Or do you just not know what mule tape is used for?

Mule Tape


At my place of work, mule tape is confusingly stocked in Stores as 'measuring tape'. It's basically mule tape with foot markings.

But the poster I quoted tried to have the original poster search for measuring tape, which would never work in place of mule tape. Virtually none of the results were relevant, since the original poster needed mule tape.

We know this as fish tape.

Lowe's or Home Depot should stock this.

Quick search on Lowe's shows a 240' fish tape:

or plain nylon, 500'

The mule tape in the vid instructions says its used for electrical conduit pulling wire or tape I assume. He used it for holding down the plastic for a hoop green house using cattle panels. It lays flat, easy to tie and strong. The plastic goes over the cattle panels and every two squares he used mule tape to hold down the plastic. I was copying his idea but only found huge rolls of it online. Mule Tape @ 2:46.

I'm all goofed up. I misread something when I searched what Mule Tape even was.

All is good....I need 200' ft of fish tape too...I'm running THHN wire out to the greenhouse. Thanks

If going underground, I would suggest THWN in a suitable conduit or direct burial UF over THHN.

Although most THHN also meets THWN specs.
