Product Description
Our 6mm high-density EPDM sponge tape (approx. 120 kg/m³) offers durable sealing, cushioning, and vibration dampening across a wide range of indoor and outdoor applications. Its closed-cell structure effectively blocks air, water, dust, and UV, while the pressure-sensitive adhesive backing ensures secure bonding to clean, smooth surfaces.
At 6mm thick, this tape provides extra cushioning and compressibility — making it ideal for weatherstripping, hatch seals, sound isolation, and panel spacing in sheltered or semi-exposed environments.
Available widths: 10mm to 930mm

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How does EPDM tape compare to neoprene tape?
A: EPDM sponge tape is more resistant to UV, ozone, and general weathering, making it a better long-term choice for outdoor or semi-exposed environments. Neoprene, on the other hand, performs better in oily or chemical-exposed settings like automotive and marine industries. For sealing, gasketing, and weatherproofing, EPDM is often the preferred choice — unless regular contact with petroleum-based substances is expected.
