+1 gaffer tape.

Related: if you want the tapiest tape to ever tape, "bi-filament tape". It's sticky as hell, cannot be torn, and you can get it in 12in (or wider!) rolls.

> the tapiest tape to ever tape, "bi-filament tape"

An excellent description. Fiberglass reinforced, adhesive that's closer to a resin than a tape adhesive. You can use it like it's cargo strapping — around sharp corners, to reinforce things (product descriptions describe reinforcing steel drums with it), etc. — wild stuff.

3M VHB (very high bond) is right up there. I use it to secure things like Thunderbolt docks and their power bricks (which can get very hot which messes with many adhesives) to the underside of a desk. It often requires me to insert an oscillating tool to remove without damaging the device.
