Rescue Tape is a self-fusing silicone repair tape with loads of uses. First developed by the US Military, this is an amazingly versatile and easy to use product. Once you start using it, you won’t know how you ever did without it.All you need to do is stretch it and wrap it, and it bonds to itself within seconds, creating a permanent air-tight, water-tight seal that resists fuel, oil, acid, solvent, saltwater, road salt and UV Rays. You can repair leaks on home plumbing and hoses in a flash, use it for electrical wiring insulation or as shrink wrap — the possibilities are endless. For fishos, it makes an ideal alternative to the heat shrink material commonly used in a variety of game rigging techniques, as well as coming in handy for emergency rod repairs.Rescue Tape is heat resistant to 260ºC, and remains flexible to -60ºC, and because it doesn’t rely on adhesive, will work on oily, muddy or dirty surfaces. This makes it ideal for repairing radiator hoses, power steering lines or similar. It is so strong, you can even layer it up and make fan belts. A potential lifesaver when off the beaten track or out at sea. When you need to remove it, simply cut it off — Rescue Tape leaves no residue. Keep a roll in the boat, and another in the car for the next time you need rescuing.
