Best duct tape according to redditors

So duct tape is $8.74 a roll and a cheap paint job can cost $700. Assuming this person's time is without value (because he spent time doing this in the first place) he can re-duct tape it 80 times before the duct tape costs more than paint. 80 x 3 months is 240 months or 20 years. 20 years seems pretty optimistic for a traditional paint job.

This gets the r/frugal_jerk seal of approval.

Hey everyone, I cringe when I see the cost vs contents of most first aid kits on the market. Too much unnecessary stuff and only the highest priced kits have clotting powder, which I’ve used on the trail for controlling bleeding with large abrasions and deep or tangential lacerations. I put together my suggestions, with an eye toward maximizing usefulness and minimizing per unit cost. IMO this is superior to most kits costing 2-3x more. Light enough for the discernible backpacker, but makes a great gift for family and friends to throw in the car pocket, the boat, ATV, or carry along to kids sporting events. Feel free to add, subtract or substitute to customize your own.

Ever-Ready First Aid Adhesives, assorted sizes, 280ct $6.95 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0179S0IAW
Self explanatory, enough for 2-3 of each size per DIY kit.

Vakly Stretch Gauze: 12 pk 4” x 4yds $7.99 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MTQFPA6
1 pk per kit and 4 left over for the home medicine cabinet.

McKesson individually wrapped sterile gauze pads: 50ct $5.17 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002C5P9J8
6 per kit, throw them in a ziploc baggie to protect against moisture.

Woundseal clotting powder: 20 pkts $28.06 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008RUJXR6
Remember that compression alone, when done properly, effectively controls most bleeding. But when a member of your group is on aspirin or other blood thinners, or sustains a nasty cut that won’t stop bleeding, this stuff is awesome.

3M Duct tape: 1.88in x 30yds $3.89 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0013B1XHE
Countless uses for the backpacker / camper, from tourniquet, fracture splinting, reinforcement of wound dressings, fashioning a moleskin barrier for blisters, not to mention tent, pack or sleeping bag repair. Grab a few extra straws from your local fast food joint, trim them to 2 inches, then roll up 4 to 6ft lengths of duct tape around the straw. The straw in the middle doubles as a pocket billows for fire starting.

Rensow white petroleum jelly 5gms, 144 pkts: $24.99 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KAGT85M
Lip balm, burn treatment, also apply to rashes, blisters and abrasions to keep gauze from adhering. Doubles as an excellent fire accelerant for bushcrafting. I squeeze some on a cotton ball to use with my tender for catching a spark.

Kirkland anti-diarrheal (loperamide) tablets: 400ct $9.99 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EXPY004
Put 12 per kit and keep the rest for that week-old lasagna that you should have thrown out.

Ibuprofen 200mg tabs: 2x500ct $3.93 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00P1NJAJS
Put at least 40 per kit as this is likely to be the first supply used.

Diphenhydramine capsules 25mg, 100ct : $4.99 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00080CKDW
Useful for allergies, insect stings, contact dermatitis, and doubles as a sleep aid for those restless nights in the hammock. 12 per kit should do.

Triple antibiotic ointment 0.5oz 144 pkts: $12.18 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00H2T9K3K
6 to 8 per kit should do, and keep the rest for replen.

Ziplock snack bags, 40ct (for storing meds): $2.73 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00U9ZFFCY
Please clearly label each baggie using an indelible marker with name of med, adult dose and expiration date. Pediatric dose optional. Individual “gas station” packets are much more expensive but if routinely carried in vehicle this may be a consideration (law enforcement doesn’t like unlabeled pills floating around in baggies).

First Aid Bags (empty), Alazco, 8 bags $32.82 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0182MQ4MU
Highly optional but nice for making your kit look pretty if you’re giving these away as gifts. I double wrap mine in gallon ziploc bags for moisture control.

Shit, that's what I've been doing wrong?

I've been using this and this all this time.


This looks much easier (and lighter to boot).

Duct tape is fine, but the pros use clear gorilla tape.
Just kidding. Use your ears! Leave the charts at home.

Thanks! Yeah, I had to use tape to keep everything in place. I wish it wasn't necessary, but the adhesive that's on the strips just can't hold up the weight. I ended up using this tape and it's been so great! It's been months and everything is holding up perfectly.

This might be true, but /u/Kildon isn't wrong. Scotch calls it duct tape

Its been a while since I've done this, but the below should get you started. I may have missed some things though.

​

Do you have a ductulator handy? Its the fastest way to do what you want. There are online calculators that can do the same thing but I've never found them to be as handy.

https://www.amazon.com/Trane-TD1-Ductulator-Sleeve-Calculator/dp/B01BUGXB7G

​

Calculate the amount of air out of each room, decide on a maximum velocity of the air, IIRC 3 m/s is a good number for supply and extract from grilles as it doesn't create to much noise, and then size your duct. Note down the pressure loss that your ductulator says that you'll have through this section of duct and write down the length.

Where your individual extracts join together, you can have higher airflows as the noise shouldn't carry into the rooms to much. You could increase your air speed to say 4 m/s. Figure out the air flow though this duct, and calculate the size and pressure loss again. Also write down the length.

​

Carry on like this all the way up to where your extract fan will be.

​

Add up all your pressure losses over your index circuit (usually the furthermost extract grille to your fan, but you'll need to check this if all your duct fittings are not the same) - Pressure loss is calculated as (Pressure loss per metre of duct) x (length of duct) = Pressure loss for each section of duct. Add all these up over your index circuit. Calculate the pressure losses though your index circuit the various fittings (grilles, elbows, tees, balancing dampers, smoke/fire dampers, transitions, etc (basically anything that isn't straight duct).

​

At this point you should know your total airflow and your total pressure loss that you'll experience in the system. Add on a fuck factor to your pressure loss (20% is what I've used for piping water, I'm not sure what a good factor is for ducts though). Then you can go to your supplier with your pressure loss and airflow and they will tell you what fan you'll need.

This may help.

For everyone worried about sun and rain, this would work: Nuclear Grade Duct Tape.

Product's description: "8979N provides clean removal with little or no sticky adhesive residue for up to 6 months. Sunlight/UV and Water Resistant. Lasts 1 year without degrading. Tape construction consists of high tensile cloth and aggressive adhesive."

It looks as though it is Spongebob duct tape.

probably will work

These come in a variety of colors and offer the best compression around.

DO NOT USE SUPER GLUE

use something like this

https://www.amazon.com/300lse-Adhesive-Transfer-Attaching-Digitizers/dp/B00LWFO5R6

you should remove as much of the old residue as possible using isopropyl alcohol

It should be mentioned that if it's not used in a certain period of time, mixed with body heat, the adhesive will probably leach out and/or attract pocket fuzz. That will ruin your trendy skinny jeans.

If you want to carry handy rolls of duct tape, get something like this instead: http://www.amazon.com/Adventure-Medical-Kits-Inches-Rolls/dp/B004H87UGS (Or 500" of SOL vs. 18" for $20+.)

If you want to carry duct tape with you, be sure to keep it in a small plastic zip lock bag or aluminum foil to avoid it contaminating things around it. You're more likely to use it in a pinch anyway rather than on a regular basis (repairs vs. helping somebody move) so it'll have time to leach out. You can get small bags from craft stores.

From personal experience with the SOL tape, it's come in very handy for various things and has lasted quite a while since you're less likely to use small amounts for frivolous things. In my daypack, I keep two tapes: duct and medical.

On a different note: my Great Uncle kept his guts from spilling out after a fight using duct tape after somebody slashed him across his belly in his bar.

Here, come to my favorite place to shop...

I personally find Reditape much more compact and just as decent for all your duct-tape needs. It's super easy to toss this in an FAK or any backpack/purse/duffel bag/etc.

2-inch by 50-inch duct tape. It's a small roll and I decided to start packing it every shift I go on because of the time I ripped my pants on a cardiac arrest.

Some assembly required. Adhesive included.

This stuff, right?

https://smile.amazon.com/3M-8979N-Performance-Nuclear-48mm/dp/B000NG61G8/

Try this.

I've had success with this stuff.

Find ways of protecting yourself while you're sitting still and sleeping, as that's when you're most vulnerable. I've written about radiosurgery, which is the act of destroying select tissue with electromagnetic radiation. There's a real threat of permanent brain damage. Do what it takes to stay healthy.
What is your budget?

I've tried the following (from /r/emshielding sidebar):

• Twin-size 8ft x 4ft conductive blanket: PET felt sandwiched around a copper layer (copper taped to the PET felt's aluminum backing), w/ground braid to wall outlet. Try without grounding first. Use hot glue for a flexible bond between the layers.
  
• Aluminum panels connected end-to-end with aluminum tape, with outer copper flashing layer, around the perimeter of a bedframe, to test nearby horizontal line-of-sight vectors (even if through the walls).
  
• Steel panels coated with layers of butyl rubber products for damping.
  
  I would recommend instead of the above (which was me prototyping and testing vectors), do it the right way the first time, and build my ventillated sleeping enclosure (~$1,000 for aluminum, plus add'l layers), and coat it with layers of shielding materials (copper flashing > butyl > sheet steel > buytl > sheet lead > butyl), until you achieve complete relief. Don't skimp on the fans and power supplies.

My kit, which is usually in some sort of shoulder or back pack, always has a thin roll of Gorilla Tape, a spool of micro-paracord (80 lb test, overkill for most repairs), a powerbank capable of charging my phone to completion more then once and the appropriate cable, condoms (can be used for the obvious but also as a bandage or to carry water), a method to make fire, and some sort of snack. I have a water container with me 100% of the time. Of course there's way more silly things in there, but those things are key.

The micro paracord is super useful, for easy rope and fun/socially. A lady's purse breaks, you can fix that no problem. Need an impromptu keyring? I got ya. Even marking which suitcases go to which hotels in a third world country (most recent time I was happy to have it). Ill grab a link from Amazon. I love it

Tons of colors too, a chain of military surplus stores in my city carries it.

I used Aluminium tape, like that: https://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Tape-Foil-Ducts-Insulation/dp/B01FROBUXE (not exact brand, I purchased the tape at a local shop). The glue on that is MORE than strong enough to hold onto the lid without moving. That type of lid normally has indentations in it, but I filled them with cardboard before putting the tape on top. It also makes for a more even surface, so I could apply the LED strips more easily :3

grab a roll of this with the part.. it'll prob be in the same section

https://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Tape-Foil-Professional-Contractor-Grade/dp/B01FROBUXE

you can bend/cut the corrugated side and jam it in the hole.. and make it airtight with the foil tape.

This would be your best bet, though be warned I have no experience with that site.

There also this stuff, which is pretty similar. Only real difference is the adhesive (and the color, of course), which is designed to not leave any residue after removal for 6+ months.

Makes sense, because the military probably gets good old EB Green or EB Red for $250 a roll.

I use foil tape and rolled up towels. You can also tape up a piece of plexiglass/lexan/whatever over top of the window to create another buffer.

even better

If you haven't done the wheel slip fix then your motor is slipping on the wheel. That's likely the root of your "traction" issues. I bought this tape https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01FROBUXE/ref=ya_aw_oh_bia_dp?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You have to take the wheel skin off, wrap about 2 layers of that tape around the motor, then slide the wheel skin back on. Your performance will improve greatly.

Aluminum Tape may be what you're looking for. People use it for prop making all the time. It can be polished to a pretty good mirror finish.

This stuff would be more ideal but the LS8071 should work fine. Up to you. Both should provide enough stickage.

What you need is a duct-o-lator. Or search for HVAC duct design on youtube, there are many to choose from.

How about a 90 foot roll for $8? I've picked up mine from Amazon two years ago and I have yet to need to buy a new roll. I might have to buy a new roll probably sometime next year. This stuff goes a long way.

It's a hot mess at the moment and I don't have a good photo, but here are the pieces:

• Inline fan https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CTM0JF2/
  
• Flexible duct like this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017S4JPW4/
  
• An HVAC "Boot" like this https://www.amazon.com/Midwest-Ducts-Degree-Angle-Register/dp/B00BHLFBAK/
  
• a 6" "Wye" connector so I could connect multiple machines https://www.amazon.com/Single-Wall-Galvanized-Wye-Tee/dp/B00E0Q4902/
  
• Foil tape designed for HVAC https://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Tape-Foil-Ducts-Insulation/dp/B01FROBUXE/
  
  I put the Amazon links for reference, but shop around. Some of this stuff is much cheaper at Home Depot or other online stores.
  
  I use the foil tape to connect a "boot" directly to the back of the case my mining rig is in. Then connect the flex duct to the boot. Connect the other end to the inline fan. Connect a second piece of flex to the output of the fan and hang the end out of the window.
  
  I've found pulling the heat out works much better than blowing cold air in.
  
  If you have an open mining rig, I've seen people put up small tents like this one: https://www.amazon.com/Valuebox-2x2x4-Small-Indoor-Hydroponics/dp/B01GCHXUVU/ and then just connect the duct to it. That seems to work okay too.

I imagine you'd plant a ring of cuttings, so you have clones to work with. Then you'd skin off a little bark on both trunks wherever you'd like them to join, maybe rub them with a little rooting hormone, then wrap them with grafting tape.

I've heard gorilla tape is vegan friendly? Does anyone want to fact check me on this? I'm not 100% sure it's vegan-friendly, but I've seen it posted on this subreddit that it is. It comes in different kinds, like clear, camouflage, and I think black as well. It seems to be wider then office tape, but you can just cut it in half. Here's the clear kind:

Used it recently to write a nasty note to a jerk who dinged my car. Also to get an autograph on a menu of an actor you’ve probably never heard of, but who was big growing up in Toronto.

Sharper than I expected. I recently used this to save the day when my son refused to wear his new Christmas sweater for a family picture because the tags were itching his back. Snip. Problem solved.

Good to have this as it has pliers, but I haven’t used it other than to pull yellow lego heads out of lego helmets.

A good way to keep it all together. These clips don’t lose their… clippieness.


So, I love this little EDC. Will continue to use it, thought I don’t see many ways to improve it!

Or if something that is easier to test/implement like liners <- never used them.

Here's a link to the tape. I was bored and it looked interesting.

It does exist you were right. Duct tape was a good example, I see where you are going with the experiment, but I say you pay for quality and reliability, which in the duct tape example what if the decorated tape wasn't as stable as other brands?

I fixed my headset in the past after breaking it off at exact same spot. Worked longer than I cared to own that headset and was way stronger than the unbroken side (mine was plastic)

It is definitly called Duct Tape. https://www.amazon.com/Multi-Use-Duct-2930-C-Inches-Yards/dp/B0013B1XHEIt was origionaly invented for use in ducting and the company decided to use the name “duck” because it sounds simular. It has become an genericized trademark over the years.

I use the ductulator and the system syzer wheel (see bottom of page) on a weekly basis. If you're regularly designing equipment, they are free from your local Bell & Gossett or Trane representative.

No issues with probe wires. You need about 9 feet for and xl, but the 7 foot kit will work for a large. I recommend the permatex ultra copper rtv to install.

If you have a good hardware store, they sometimes sell it by the foot from a big roll.

Perhaps he was referring to the specific brand, Duck Brand Duct Tape

Get these things Add the Hypafix over the duct tape using the liquid bandage as a hold. Reapply Hypafix every few days until day 6.

I would suggest an ultratherm. They are awesome UTH's. But as far as securing this to the tank, whether is the zoo med or the ultratherm, use aluminum duct tape.

Ultratherm - https://beanfarm.com/collections/heating/undertank-heaters (Same company also sells on Amazon)

Aluminum Tape - https://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Tape-Foil-Ducts-Insulation/dp/B01FROBUXE/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1525098985&sr=8-3&keywords=aluminum+duct+tape

After securing the heater to the tank, Insulate at least the back, if not 2-3 sides. The best stuff to use is reflectix.

Doesn't get any better than those three links, IMO. Here is a picture of how my tank uses them. https://imgur.com/mfhU7Tk (this was mid-construction)

Also I used this tape to keep the mat attached :https://www.amazon.com/Aluminum-Tape-Foil-Ducts-Insulation/dp/B01FROBUXE/ref=zg_bs_256160011_13?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=8MWBZYPB8AWYK1CSQHJK

I do most of the time.

paper is the one that can be missing

I always have a pen, most of them time more than 1, and duct tape once you get down to a few feet left on a roll, you remove the cardboard core and smash it flat, makes it flat and easy to carry in the pocket. Never know when you will need duct tape.

Edit: Interesting, looks like you can buy it all ready to go, I make my own flat pack units but if anyone is lazy RediTape Travel Size Flat Fold Duct Tape

Thank you! That is much cheaper than Parafilm, and looks different from the gardening film but is probably the same material. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0085OFNVE/ref=pe_2640190_350905710_TE_3p_dp_1 I was mistaken too it's 90' not 250' but for $9 I'm eager to test nonetheless but yours is definitely interesting and I'm going to order some to test as well!

3m 300LSE does seem to be double sided.

Oh, so it isn't this, then. Ok
