FAQs

Is this tape suitable for permanent repairs?

While strong, this duct tape is best suited for temporary repairs and general use. For permanent structural repairs, professional-grade adhesives or materials may be required.

Can I use this tape on fabric?

Yes, it can be used on fabrics for temporary repairs, but test on a small, hidden area first to ensure it doesn't damage the material or leave excessive residue.

What is the weight capacity of this tape?

The tape has a weight capacity of 2kg, making it suitable for securing moderately weighted items temporarily.

How do I remove the tape cleanly?

Peel the tape back slowly at a sharp angle. If residue remains, try gently warming it with a hairdryer on a low setting before wiping it away.

Can this tape be used in extreme temperatures?

The tape is designed for interior and exterior use, but performance may be affected by prolonged exposure to extreme heat or cold. Store it in moderate conditions.

What are the dimensions of the tape?

The tape measures 25 meters in length and 50mm in width.

Troubleshooting

Tape not sticking well

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and free of dust, oil, or moisture. Apply firm pressure when applying the tape.

Tape leaves residue upon removal

Gently warm the residue with a hairdryer on a low setting, then peel away slowly. Use a mild adhesive remover if necessary, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Tape loses adhesion quickly

Check if the surface is appropriate for the tape. For heavy-duty applications, ensure the weight capacity (2kg) is not exceeded.

Tape tears unevenly

Use a sharp cutting tool like scissors or a utility knife for a clean cut. Pulling too quickly can sometimes cause uneven tearing.
