The carpet tape I use has a fiber web with serious adhesive on both sides. The roll of tape, a pair of shop scissors, and a small Stanley prybar stay together in my shop; and the pry bar is usually needed to break the bond. I bought the tape at Menards and use it for securing difficult-to-clamp workpieces for CNC routing with a 5 HP spindle.
I've never had work shift or come loose without purposeful effort on my part.
