A Venture Tape Unlike Any Other
A high quality polyethylene cloth tape coated with a natural rubber pressure sensitive adhesive system, our 3M™ Venture Tape™ Extreme Cloth Duct Tape 1557 has extremely high tack, high peel and adheres to corners and irregular surfaces. The polyethylene-coated, cloth-reinforced backing conforms to curved surfaces and resists moisture and humidity while the natural rubber adhesive gives you instant stick and long-term hold. The tape tears easily, across or down, without curling. It is among our stickiest and thickest venture tapes, measuring 13 mil thick, and is capable of stretching up to 18 percent beyond its original length.
