Abstract
A dispenser for adhesive tape, and the like, has a spool arrangement supported by a base member and disposed for receiving a roll of tape. A cap including a head portion and a plug portion removably retains a roll of tape on a spindle partially forming the spool arrangement, which spindle has a recess in an end surface thereof for selectively receiving the plug portion of the cap. The base member is selectively mountable on a wall surface, and the like, as by suitable fasteners or by an adhesive, and the like. Also provided on the base member, in addition to the spool arrangement, is a double-edge cutting arrangement disposed for severing tape wound in either tangential direction from a roll journaled on the spindle of the spool arrangement.
