Army Rescue Tape, so tough it can be used as an emergency fan belt

Posted in Tools by Conner Flynn on May 5th, 2009

Army Rescue TapeYou thought Nuclear Duct Tape was tough. Army Rescue Tape is so good that the armed forces use it. It doesn’t say what they use for though. How tough is it? Well they say that it can even be used as an emergency fan belt. Yeah, that’s tough.

Made of silicone, the tape bonds to itself 1 minute after adhesion. The bond becomes permanent and the tape tears at 700psi so using your teeth isn’t a good idea. It’s acid, solvent and oil resistant and it’s resistant to UV rays.

A 1″ — 3m roll will cost you £11.99. You’ll be glad you bought it when that fanbelt goes.
