About this deal

Tadpole teamed up with LA NPDT to design and develop a next-generation tape cutter and then take it from prototype to production.

Tadpole Tape Cutter - Lee Valley Tools

Through product design, development, and prototype production with LA NPDT, Tadpole got the resources necessary to take an idea from prototype to manufacturing. Completing the project in a timely manner allowed the company to be a part of an emerging market of highly-engineered tapes.

We developed a solution to the difficulty of cutting T-Rex Tape. The process of product development and prototype production required a lot of experimenting and design modifications. More than several dozen prototypes were produced during the process of product development. Finally, this tape cutter not only fulfilled a market need but also served as a basis for future developments in the performance tape industry.The final product is a two-piece design featuring the Safe Flex Blade Technology. A perfect item for a market that demands high-performance and cost-effective tools. Because we are a “one-stop-shop” for product development, rapid prototyping is one of our everyday activities. Through many prototype production-testing-design modification cycles, we came up with the product that was easy-to-use and relatively simple to make. Tadpole Tapes are used as thermal seals for doors and access ports on high temperature equipment such as combustion heaters, industrial baking ovens, furnaces, incinerators or bio mass boilers to name a few. Tadpole Tape consists of a bulb and a tail section. When the bulb section is compressed under light pressure it forms an insulating seal, while the purpose of the tail section is for fixing the tape in place. The cutter mounts onto the roll with an elastic belt that lets you adjust the tension, ensuring that the tape feeds through the sliding cutter body smoothly and consistently.

Our main challenge was to design and develop a cutting tool that could cut the strongest tapes easily while being safe and handy for consumers. In addition to being extremely sharp, this tool needed to be cost-effective in terms of manufacturing. Lee Mallahan III is the product developer and CEO of Tadpole Tape Cutter. He is also the inventor of a handy device that precisely and easily cuts most kinds of tapes.

Working with LA NPDT Tadpole created the first tape cutter that could easily cut the strongest tapes on the market. Despite their simple appearance, these tape cutters eliminate a lot of frustration when handling adhesive tape. As the strongest tape on the market, T-Rex Tape handles hundreds of pounds without tearing. It can’t be torn with hands or cut with regular tape cutters.
