This stuff is new to me. I just found it and now I really want to try it out!:)
Rescue Tape is a self-fusing silicone repair product with infinite uses. First used by the U.S. Military and now seen at consumer and industrial trade shows across America, this is the most versatile and easy-to-use emergency repair product available. You can repair leaks on plumbing and hoses in a flash, use to insulate electrical wiring or as shrink wrap, wrap tool handles, and much, much more. Dimensions: 1" x 12 ft. roll.
Self-fusing—creates a permanent air-tight, water-tight seal in seconds
Never gets gummy or sticky like electrical or duct tape — no messy cleanup
Resists fuels, oils, acids, solvents, salt water, road salt, and UV rays
Extremely versatile with an unbelievably long shelf life
Incredible 700 PSI tensile strength
Insulates 8,000V per layer
Withstands temperatures of 500° F
Remains flexible to -85° F (-60° C)
Rescue Tape has infinite uses! Here are just a few suggestions:
Keep it on board vehicles & equipment for emergency hose repair!
Seal leaky hoses, pipes, tubing, lines, & fittings
Neaten up lines and extension cords in stowage
Wrap tools and handles for a GREAT non-slip grip
Wrap wiring harnesses and custom split-looming
Waterproof electrical connections and terminals
Use it as an emergency fan belt!
Make emergency O-Rings
Wrap hydraulic fittings and other exposed metal connections to help prevent corrosion
Works even over wet, dirty, or oily surfaces!
Use it as a tourniquet or emergency wrap over bleeding injuries
Wrap it around ANYTHING that you want secure, and it will never leave any sticky residue
Rescue Tape Directions
1.) Wrap Rescue Tape around project by stretching and overlapping onto itself. Stretch at least double to ensure a good bond; for high pressure leaks stretch to maximum amount. The tighter Rescue Tape is wrapped, the quicker and stronger the bond.
2.) Continue wrapping Rescue Tape around project by overlapping 50% onto itself so that ½ the width is covered with the next wrap. The first and last wrap should completely overlap onto the previous wrap for a complete bond. Additional layers may be necessary, and the same process should be used over the previous layers. Rescue Tape works on either side.
3.) Repositioning Rescue Tape is only appropriate in the first few seconds after wrapping. Attempting to reposition Rescue Tape after 1 minute or longer is not recommended. Rescue Tape is not reusable; however, additional Rescue Tape can be applied over project at any time in the future.
Additional Suggestions:
For high pressure leaks, additional wrapping may be required. Most hose repairs can be repaired with 3-5 layers in thickness, and wrapping 3 to 5 inches in each direction away from the leak; however, additional strength can be added simply by wrapping more Rescue Tape.
Rescue Tape has essentially a "maximum" stretch. It is important to stretch Rescue Tape to its maximum to avoid having the leak create a bubble.
For electrical wiring, it is not necessary to stretch tightly. In fact, it will be more resilient to abrasion when it is not stretched as tightly.
