Shurtape PE 900 Marine Shrink Wrap Tape 5.66 in x 180 ft
Shurtape PE 900 Marine Shrink Wrap Tape 5.66 in x 180 ft — Product description
Shurtape PE 900 is the marine shrink wrap tape you reach for when you're sealing up a boat cover for winter storage. Clear synthetic rubber adhesive, a serrated polyethylene backing, and a watertight, UV-resistant seal that holds through the off-season. It's 5.66 inches wide and 180 feet on the roll, so one roll covers a lot of seam.
If you've ever shrink-wrapped a boat for winter, you know the cover is only as good as the seams. That's where Shurtape PE 900 comes in. It's a marine shrink wrap tape built to seal, patch, and bundle polyethylene shrink film, and it's the kind of tape that earns its spot on the cart every fall when the storage jobs pile up.
The backing is a 9 mil polyethylene film, 5.66 inches wide and 180 feet long on the roll. That width matters. It lays a broad band across a seam so you're not chasing a thin strip of tape down the length of a hull. And 180 feet goes a long way, so you can seam a full cover, patch a tear, and still have plenty left over.
Underneath is a synthetic rubber based clear adhesive. It grips shrink film even when the surface is cold, a little dusty, or slightly damp, which is exactly the condition you're working in on a breezy October morning. Once it's down, it stays down. The seal is watertight and humidity resistant, and the backing is UV-resistant, so it holds up through months of sun, rain, and snow load without letting go or opening the cover up to water.
A few practical touches make it easier to work with up on a ladder. The edge is serrated, so it tears clean by hand, no knife or dispenser needed when you've got one hand on the rail. The white backing blends into standard white shrink wrap for a tidy finish. And it works on more than just film. Use it for vapor barrier seaming, bundling, wrapping, and general sealing across a variety of surfaces around the boat.
This is a preservation tape, not a general-purpose duct tape. It's made to move with shrink film as it heats, shrinks, and settles, so reach for it when you're covering a boat. One roll handles a season's worth of covers for most weekend boaters.
