Panzertape can either be sort of like duck tape or like gaffer tape (with the actual fibers inside visible/noticable).
The way I usually distinguish gaffer from no gaffer is: can you easily (and I mean easily!) rip it into the desired size and does doing so sometimes/potentially leave small strands of "thread" at the end of the roll? If yes it's very likely gaffer tape and awesome!
You can't rip duct tape? That sounds absurdly and unnecessarily impractical!
Well I specifically thought about "without using tools or tools like things" aka without needing fingernails or teeth...
And yes, most duck tape (not the actual brand stuff mind you!) I have encountered in my life we're pretty much tear resistant to the point of folding over and crumpling multiple times before even looking separable! Unless I used a pair of scissors to cut it or switched to gaffers tape which was insanely easy to separate even with only one hand! (While holding it in said hand!)
Now that you mention this though, I might just have interacted with very 'badly' (for a sufficiently narrow definition of badly) made tape up to this point 😅
