Fabric Repairs: Adhesive tapes are ordinary items that can be found in almost every household. They are commonly used for bonding, sealing and waterproofing. As useful as they are, adhesive tapes can be essential materials for outdoor repairs.
Outdoor repair usually gets more specific. It is more likely that we will deal with fabrics such as nylon, canvas and polyester in the field. We will have to seal seams and stop leaks in outdoor gear. To make outdoor repairs effective, we need adhesive tapes that have both high strength and high flexibility so that they fit with different kinds of fabrics. Among other products available on the market, TPU tape might be the best choice for making heavy duty fabric repairs.
TPU tape is made of thermoplastic polyurethane, a kind of material that is highly elastic and resistant to high and low temperatures. It sticks well to almost any surface, ideal for repairing camping tents, backpacks, sleeping bags, jackets, as well as all sorts of inflatable articles.
Most of repair tape products are cut into small patches, such as 3 by 3 or 3 by 7 inch square. These patches are readily cut and easy to carry around. Many people find them useful for repairing small rips and tears. However, adhesive tape in rolls has the advantage of providing even more flexibility to make repairs in the field.
