Aluminum tape, also known as aluminum foil tape, is a versatile adhesive tape that is made of aluminum backing material and a strong adhesive layer. It is commonly used for insulation, sealing, and duct work applications due to its high durability and resistance to moisture, heat, and chemicals.
The backing material of aluminum tape is typically made of pure aluminum, which provides excellent thermal conductivity and reflects heat and light. The adhesive layer is often made of acrylic, rubber, or silicone, depending on the application and intended use.
One of the most common uses of aluminum tape is for insulation in HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems. The tape is used to seal seams and joints in duct work, as well as to wrap around pipes and other components to prevent heat loss or gain. The high-temperature resistance of aluminum tape also makes it ideal for use in oven and furnace repair, as well as for insulation in high-temperature applications.
In addition to insulation, aluminum tape is also used for general sealing applications. The tape can be applied to surfaces such as glass, plastic, and metal to create an air-tight seal that prevents moisture and air from leaking through. It is also commonly used for patching and repairing surfaces, such as walls and roofs, as well as for securing electrical wiring and cables.
Another advantage of aluminum tape is that it is highly resistant to chemicals and corrosion. This makes it ideal for use in marine and automotive applications, where it can be used to seal and protect parts that are exposed to saltwater and other harsh chemicals.
Overall, aluminum tape is a highly versatile adhesive tape that is used in a wide range of applications across various industries. Its high durability, resistance to heat and moisture, and excellent adhesive properties make it an excellent choice for any application that requires a reliable and long-lasting sealing solution.

The tape is excellent in adhesion and the outside is flat and smooth.
My purpose with the tape was not sealing ductwork, I was using it to stick film rail extensions into a camera that I was converting for full time use of 120 film instead of the outdated 616 size film it was designed for. I needed the tape to be both strong tack as well as smooth and hard on the outside. This tape worked in both attributes. The smooth exterior allows my film to slide cleanly along the new, extended film rails.the strength kept the extended rails attached as I walked around with the vintage camera taking photos.
Having not worked on ductwork in many years, I&#;m not a certified professional, but, I suspect that this tape would suffice after holding my camera together in the Texas summer heat. It&#;s only lived through a few rolls of film over a couple weeks so far, but that was moving into cold AC then back outside in humid Gulf Coast Texas summer heat and being tossed around in a camera bag. It still looks like the day I put it in.
