double stick

Adhesive both sides

Double stick is tape with adhesive on both sides, used to join two surfaces invisibly: I used double stick to mount the poster.

The full form is double-stick tape or double-sided tape, but crafters and stagehands often just call it double stick.

In ice hockey, double stick refers to a penalty for holding an opponent's stick.
