ESI TR10B Esi Silicone Tape 10' Roll Blk

This stuff is some kind of crazy magic tape. I'm a chemistry professor and spent all night thinking about how it must work. I bought it to protect the chainstays on my new mountain bike. After having used it, I'm going to buy a few more rolls and put the stuff on whatever I can around the house. I'm going to wrap it around the metal hanger hooks I use to store my bikes and other things in the garage and then just walk around trying to find stuff to wrap up. It is not sticky, has and leaves no adhesive residue, but fuses to itself almost to the point of melting together. It stretches probably 10x more than electrical tape, but does not become stretched out and useless like electrical tape does. The silicone allows you to stretch, recoil, stretch, recoil, almost to your heart's extent. Once wrapped, it creates a nice rubbery surface with a good amount of grip [if you wanted to use this as a gripping surface for road bars or anything with a handle]. I even wadded some of the scrap up into a ball, let it sit a few minutes, and then bounced it around like a bouncy ball. To get it off, you just cut an edge and tear it off. No cleanup. No mess. Truly amazing stuff.

ESI Silicone Tape is great stuff. Over a year later on my bike and it is still holding up well. Looks almost like new and definitely helps dampen some vibration.
