The History of Duck Tape

Duct tape has adhered itself so well to American culture that it's become much more than a roll of tape. It's an enduring symbol of all in this world that is functional.

So how did this sticky wonder come about? It was World War II and there was a need for a strong, flexible, durable, waterproof tape that could seal canisters, repair cracked windows, repair trucks, and help the war effort in general. Permacell, a division of the Johnson and Johnson Company, stepped up to this challenge. Using medical tape as a base, they applied two new technologies. Polycoat adhesives gave the tape its unshakable stick and polyethylene coating allowed them to laminate the tape to a cloth backing, making it extremely strong and flexible. The resulting tape was nicknamed "Duck Tape" for its ability to repel water, while ripping easily into strips for fast convenient use.

After the war the tape was put to the more civilian use of holding ducts together. So the product changed from a nameless army green tape to the familiar gray duct tape.

Thirty years later, Jack Kahl, former CEO of Manco, Inc., changed the name of the product to Duck Tape and put ‘Manco T. Duck’ on the Duck Tape logo, giving personality to a commodity product. Manco, Inc. also began to shrink-wrap and label the product, making it easier to stack for retailers, and easier to distinguish different grades for customers.

Now, over 50 years after its invention, Duck tape is sold in more than 20 colors and is touted by its followers for having a nearly endless amount of uses. What will happen to Duck Tape? What advancements in Duck Tape technology will be made? Only time will tell.

Preparing Surfaces to Use Duck Tape

When using Duck Tape, whether the traditional silver or one of the rainbow of Duck color tapes, all surfaces should be clean and free of dust or dirt before placing any tape on them. You will want to dust the surface and then wipe the area down with rubbing alcohol. However, rubbing alcohol can dull certain surfaces, so try it on a small, inconspicuous area before applying on a large scale.

The Henkel Duck Colored Duck Tape is ideal for coordinating repairs, color-coding materials, and crafting. This professional-grade tape features excellent adhesion to a wide variety of surfaces like cloth, vinyl, leather, plastic, metal, and laminates, as well as a thicker construction, with more cotton fibers per square inch than the all-purpose-grade Duck-brand duct tape. It also tears easily by hand without curling, and it conforms to uneven surfaces. This tape is a versatile white color, making it ideal for a multitude of creative and practical uses. It comes in a 1.88-inch-by-20-yard roll.

Its clean release resists delamination and it conforms to a wide variety of surfaces. It also tears straight, resists curling, and has outstanding performance over a wide temperature range. Nashua 357 uses include HVAC (heating, ventilating, air conditioning) and refrigeration applications. Also asbestos removal applications, sealing of seams and joints in metal air handling systems, sand and media blasting applications, and the manufacture of flexible duct equipped with metal collars. It is a great tape for bonding, protecting, holding, repairing, patching, packaging, bundling and motor sports.
