The present invention relates to an improved drywall tape for use in drywall installation applications. More specifically, the improved drywall tape is comprised of a woven mesh body portion positioned between, and fixedly attached to, two solid end portions. The shape and size of the mesh body portion is meant to substantially fill the valley created by two factory tapered edge portions of adjacently hung drywall sheets, thereby requiring less joint compound/drywall mud than would otherwise be required to finish the drywall joint and reducing labor/material costs. The shape and configuration of the improved drywall tape also enables the same to be used to finish an inside corner, and may further comprise an adhesive backing for easier installation.
