Friction Tape Standard Grade 45 Series - 3/4" x 60ft - High Grade Cloth Rubber Based Adhesive - 1 Roll

I know what you’re thinking - “what is that photo and what does it have to do with friction tape”?That’s the “recline” knob on my $2500 recliner. The leather cover came loose from the metal knob underneath. The cover would spin free and the “recline” function was hard to use.I couldn’t use spray adhesive or epoxy to fix the loose leather cover because there is a nut underneath holding a metal knob that adjusts the recliner tension mechanism. The leather cover needs to “grab” the metal knob but also be removable.I pondered how to attach the cover when the idea of friction tape occurred to me. It was an ideal solution.I removed the dried out foam and adhesive around the metal knob under the leather knob cover. I gave the metal knob 4 wraps of friction tape and worked the leather cover in place.Perfect! The friction tape is sticky enough to grab, it’s not permanent so I can remove the cover down the road and the recliner works perfect! Cool!

Does the job... I guess with the aluminum bats... they don't need it anymore for the Louisville Slugges222r.

I had to leave this tape outside (on a covered porch) for a number of weeks before I could bring it into the house. I have never experienced a friction tape having this strong a chemical odor. After having remove the plastic wrapper and left outside I am now able to have it on my workbench. The adhesion is noticeably less strong than my previous role of friction tape, but it does work.

This friction tape is opposite of what is described. The tape I received was slimy and full of some petroleum stinky smelling goo that will not wash off. I give it minus 10 stars.

Thanks. Purchased multiple times. Awesome stuff
