T-REX CLOTH TAPE

T-Rex Tape is a ferociously strong duct tape made with co-extrusion and an extreme, thickly applied adhesive. 

Yes! T-Rex Tape is specially designed with UV resistant materials which gives T-Rex Tape dynamic holding power inside AND outside.

T-Rex is designed for extreme all-weather durability. The duct tape will freeze below 32°F, but will keep its strength when thawed. Other products have their own extreme temperature ranges. Make sure to check out the product pages for details. 

T-Rex Tape is best applied at the surface temperature range of 32°F to 200°F, but will withstand temperatures as low as -7°F.

The double thick, super aggressive adhesive, allows T-Rex Tape to hold better to more surfaces than ordinary tapes.  That includes rough and dirty surfaces in a wide range of temperatures and humidity.

T-Rex Tape can be removed with some effort, though it may leave a residue in some applications.  To remove residue, try using T-Rex Tape itself to de-stick the remaining adhesive.  General purpose cleaners and or rubbing alcohol will also help finish the job. 

T-Rex is available at major retailers, hardware stores and online retailers nationwide. Visit the Where to Buy section to find a store near you. 

T-Rex Tape will last longest if it’s kept in a cool dry place.
