Wrap On Tape Beats The Heat FARM SHOP Repairs 2-1-23 Hottest new product for patching mufflers, stove pipes, water pipes or other "hot stuff" is wrap-on Easy Test tape.
To fix a leaky stove pipe or muffler, for example, you simply wrap the tape over the hole or crack, then apply heat from a torch, soldering iron or heat lamp to set the tape.
If the area of the pipe or muffler being repaired normally heats up to 220? or more in regular use, you don't have to apply supplemental heat. Just wrap the tape over the hole or crack and heat from the pipe itself will set and cure the tape.
Once applied, the cured tape will withstand up to 500?F. continuously, and intermittent temperatures up to 600?F. In addition to wrapping it around pipes or mufflers, the tape can be used to patch holes or cracks on flat surfaces, such as furnace ducts. It can also be placed between two parts to be bonded. Permanently bonds metals, ceramics, glass and other material.
A standard package of Easy Test epoxy tape measures 2 in. wide and 12 ft. long. It sells for $2.50 per package, including handling and shipping charges.
