Did the trick. Great stuff.Apr 21, 2011
By Erin A. Thomas
"wornways@mochinet.com"
I'm living in an apartment where the property managers don't like to take care of their tenant's maintenance problems, and when they finally give in and make the attempt, they fall short of doing any sort of quality work. Last year, to patch up several jetting air leaks in the HVAC duct work, they used normal duct tape--which melted soon there after. Melted!
I've been in stores looking for the right kind of duct tape, but no-one who worked at any of the large home improvement chains could tell me anything about the duct tapes they carried. Nothing of value, so I had been reluctant until I had the grand idea of reading reviews of duct tapes online, which brought me to trying out this tape.
First of all, the tape is very, very easy to work with. There is a thin plastic backing that lets you handle the tape and cut it to the correct size without it sticking all over everything and losing its adhesiveness in the process. Once you're ready, you can peel a bit of the backing away and anchor the tape, then steadily peel the rest away as you apply the rest, exactly where you want it to go.
The air pressure behind the leaks is so high that it literally tore off the duct tape that was applied last year, but so far (about 3 weeks now), this foil tape has held on tight without even a slight bulge where the air leaks have been sealed. I've run the air conditioner in the day and the heater at night (desert conditions in spring--cold nights hot days), and there has been no warping or melting of any kind.
A couple of the air leaks are occurring where the duct work "meets" the HVAC unit. I put that in quotations because the "meeting" is offset by several centimeters, making it impossible to create a seal. I used some screws to wrench the duct work down onto the HVAC unit and quickly learned why this wasn't done--it caused the HVAC unit to make a racket that would wake the distant dead. I took the screws back out, leaving the large gap. These are the sort of air leaks this tape has been used to seal, and it has been famously effective. In fact, effective well beyond my expectations. And I've only even used a couple of yards off the 50 yard roll. That's all it took!
So, yes, high praise to this stuff. Very high praise.

Good Dust Collector TapeMar 26, 2010
By Gepetto
I taped my 4" ductwork and it seemed to increase my dust collector suction by 50%. A lot of suction is lost at the pipe joints. Highly recommended for your dust collection system.

This is great tape. I bought it to repair a heating vent and have found it useful for other projects as well. I'm going to buy more of this same tape.

Great!Nov 09, 2008
By D. Wong
I bought this foil tape to do some duct repair on my HVAC system. It seals the ducts perfectly and is very easy to apply. The foil tape is paper backed, so all you have to do is peel off the backing and apply. A Great product!

Really stickyNov 12, 2011

Super sticky, thick and good quality. We used to cover old vents and dryer duct. Works perfectly. I wish my duct tape is half as good.
