Straight tape is a fusible stay tape used along the grain of the fabric. Available mainly in polyester, as well as cotton and nylon, it is used in areas where you want to prevent stretching or distortion of seams and cut edges, such as zipper attachment, pocket openings, shoulder seams, and front openings.
Choose from polyester, which takes advantage of dimensional stability and quick-drying properties; cotton, which takes advantage of absorbency and a comfortable feel against the skin; and nylon, which takes advantage of lightness, strength, and abrasion resistance, depending on the application and the fabric. Customer reviews mention its firm finish at pocket openings and zipper attachments, its good compatibility with thin or soft materials and shoulder seams in cut-and-sew knits, and its ease of handling when iron-bonding.

It has just the right amount of tension and has a very solid finish.
I think it's for textile with a certain degree of firmness.
