Polyethylene film tape (63535) is a 7-mil thick tape coated on one side with a synthetic rubber adhesive. This particular tape is UV-resistant and can form a water-tight seal, making it a good tape for outdoor use. It is designed to be able to mask windows and doors in stucco fabrication and other construction applications. This tape is available in white or red. Available widths range from 2 inches (48 millimeters) to 44 inches (1,118 millimeters).
Rubber tape usually does not have an adhesive side but sticks to itself. This means it has to be stretched entirely around a cable to effectively adhere to itself using elastic tension against the backing.
