Columbia Semi Automatic Taper – Bucket Taper for Drywall Taping

The Columbia Semi Automatic Taper, also known as the Bucket Taper, is designed for fast and efficient drywall taping without the complexity of a full automatic taper. Built for professionals, this semi auto drywall taper applies a consistent amount of compound to large volumes of tape, making it ideal for both small projects and daily jobsite use.

Handmade from U.S. billet aluminum and stainless steel, every Columbia Bucket Taper is machined in Canada for precision, strength, and durability. Its tape spool with brake reduces operator fatigue by controlling tape flow, keeping application smooth and steady.

Key Features

• Consistent Compound Application: Pulls tape directly through compound for even coverage
• Tape Spool with Brake: Reduces drag and operator fatigue during use
• Durable Build: Made from billet aluminum and stainless steel components
• Laser Engraved Instructions: Quick reference for easy use on the jobsite
• Beginner-Friendly: Simple design requires no additional tools to operate

How It Works

Attach the Columbia Semi Automatic Taper directly to a standard 5-gallon bucket of joint compound. Pull the tape through the taper, and it automatically coats the tape with compound—no extra steps, no mess. Even beginners can use this drywall taping bucket tool with little effort, while professionals appreciate it for quick touch-ups and smaller jobs where a full automatic taper isn’t needed.
