Pipe Insulation Tape
The aluminum foil layer is closely attached to the rubber and plastic cotton, and will not shift or fall off.
1. Pipe insulation tape has good insulation, waterproofing, fireproofing and weatherproofing properties. 2. Has the function of heat preservation and insulation, which improves the effect of waterproof and anti-freezing and effectively extends the service life of pipes.
In winter, it can lock the heat and protect outdoor pipes from freezing. In summer, aluminum foil insulation protects water pipes from high temperatures and scorching sun.
Pipe insulation foam tube is very easy to install and remove.
Extra-long size provides all-around protection for more outdoor pipes. You could bend it into any shape or cut it to the desired length to suit more different occasions.

This insulated tape came just in time for our freeze. We used it to wrap pipes in my barn. The tape worked perfectly and was easy to use in hard to reach places. The sticky side adhered well. After the freeze; our pipes were just fine.

This insulation is great but has one big drawback.As it should, it sticks to virtually anything that isn't wet or covered in crud and dust. There is, however, one problem with the adhesive. I've recently used a product that is similar to this. The biggest difference is that when needed, I could pull it back off without the foam ripping. When I apply this brand to a clean copper pipe and make a mistake lining it up, which then requires it to be pulled off, the foam rips and small pieces stay stuck to the pipe. This makes it almost impossible to adjust without replacing the whole strip. This presents a huge problem because the coil is so large that wrapping smaller diameter pipe requires a lot of wrapping the coil over and over and over and over the pipe. Now, I can pull off the plastic backing that covers the adhesive, but doing this while handling the coil is a real pain. I had to cut shorter lengths but then when a length is finished, I need to line up the next section properly.There is some insulation value in the foam. Once applied, like the other similar product there is a notable difference between the wrap's outer temperature and that of the pipe it's wrapped around. The silver outer coating also helps reflect back some of the pipe's heat.So far, I only have it in service to keep our hot water lines in the basement from cooling off. I can't foresee any need to use it in reverse, keeping the pipes cold in a warm environment, but I can see where it would have some value in this kind of application as well.When comparing this to the standard three-foot long 5/8 inch thick split foam insulation made specifically for copper piping, which I have used previously, it is cheaper but not as thick so it won't have the same insulation value. I would probably need to use two wraps of this stuff to get the same insulation factor as the split foam option which brings the cost to almost as high as the split foam product.● So, on the downside, the roll is a large diameter, and when applying this stuff, I needed to cut off sections so that it could be handled properly. There is just no way to use this between piping in a basement environment where the pipes are close to or run between studs and floor joists. Even unwound, when starting, this stuff is 32 feet long, which, when wrapping it around a pipe, means constantly threading the loose end over and over and over the pipe. It would be nice if this were made about 3 1/2 inches wide so that it could be applied the long way on standard 1/2 copper pipe used in homes. This way it could cover entire lengths of pipe without the need to uncoil the whole spool.Everything is good so far. This winter will be a good time to test its ability to contain some heat and reduce the amount of water that needs to be run before the hot water makes it to the facet.

KAIHENG 32.8FT Pipe Insulation Tape WrapGood foam tape with an adhesive backing. The foam is synthetic and would be suitable for really any type of surface metal/plastic/glass/ceramic. It won't get soaked, sag, or shrink. Could be used as insulation for a water supply pipe, sewer, or HVAC. Suitable for indoors or outdoors. The ~33 ft length of 2" width should be roughly enough to wrap 20' of 1" thick pipe. The actual width of the tape is 1/8th less than 2". Cuts well with utility scissors, or a utility knife. Overall good tape, will be enough for small scale job.

We have a water pipe in the crawlspace that couldn't be spray-foamed because it's in a tight space that couldn't be reached, so I thought this insulation wrap might be a good fit in this situation, so I ordered it. It comes in a roll and packaged in a thin, clear, plastic bag. There was a bit of a rubbery smell upon opening.This insulation wrap is made of basically three materials: thermoplastic rubber, aluminum foil, and foam. The wrap is 2” wide and approximately 33' long. All of the materials used in this insulation wrap are rather thin, unfortunately. We've used an aluminum-based insulation wrap on pipes before and it was a lot thicker and more substantial than this stuff. This wrap feels like you could rip it if you tugged too hard on it and the foam is such that it feels like it would disintegrate over a short period of time. The adhesive seems to be good and strong, at least. Unfortunately, due to the lack of quality of this insulation wrap, we decided against using it since it would just create a mess to try to remove if we decided to use a better insulation wrap afterwards. Also, we really don't feel these materials are thick enough to properly insulate any pipe against a cold Canadian winter. We especially do not recommend using this wrap on an outdoor pipe, since it would degrade very quickly, if left to the elements. Not to mention, even though you get 33' worth of wrap, it won't go far due to the width, so if you do buy this wrap, take that into account.This insulation wrap is regularly $24.99 and currently, Kaiheng is offering a coupon for 10% off, bringing the price down to $22.49. While that seems a great price for insulation wrap, keep in mind that you get what you pay for, as the materials used in this wrap are very thin. We recommend spending a bit more to get a better quality insulation wrap. I hope this review has helped you to make the purchasing decision that is right for you.

This aluminum foil pipe insulation tape has proven invaluable in protecting my outdoor water pipes during the colder months. The self-adhesive design makes installation incredibly easy—a quick wrap around the pipes is all it takes, and the strong adhesive ensures it stays put even through fluctuating temperatures and wind. The aluminum foil layer reflects radiant heat, adding an extra layer of protection against freezing, while the foam insulation itself provides excellent thermal protection. I've noticed a significant reduction in water pipe temperature fluctuations since applying it, offering peace of mind against costly burst pipes. It's particularly useful for protecting exposed pipes in less-insulated areas of my home and outbuildings.While the ease of application and effectiveness are major pros, the tape isn't perfectly seamless. There are some small gaps between each wrap where a tiny amount of heat can escape. Additionally, the thickness of the tape makes it slightly awkward to work with on pipes with fittings or valves; careful cutting and maneuvering are needed to ensure a snug fit around these areas.Overall, despite these minor drawbacks, I consider this tape a worthwhile investment for preventing frozen pipes and saving energy. It's a practical, effective, and relatively inexpensive solution for protecting pipes during cold weather.

I chose this pipe insulation wrap for finishing the intake vent on my furnace in the basement. The furnace, constantly drawing cold Canadian winter air, was getting so cold that water would condense on the vent, drip down and make a mess of my food storage pantry. Having run out of a roll that I purchased at a big-box store, I've used this brand to finish the job.This pipe insulation tape/wrap is OK. It' not as tough and durable as the store-bough brand that cost a fair bit more but it's still a decent choice if you're on a budget. The adhesive is indeed fairly strong, however the "Aluminum" backing seems more like a plastic or plastic-like material than an actual metal. If it is indeed aluminum, it's extremely thin but I suspect that it's not. When I compare to the store-bought, it's not shiny or have a metallic sheen to it like you'd expect a proper fire-proofing aluminum material to have.Further, the foam insulation, while soft, is relatively weak. In fact, if you stick the adhesive to your fingers, the foam will simply tear. As such, I would highly recommend applying this tape to a surface that will never need to be unwrapped as this foam will simply tear off and leave an awful lot of foam residue behind. You'd pretty much have to replace whatever you attach it to or require an awful lot of solvent and scrubbing.That said, for insulating a vent pipe in the basement that will never need to be unwrapped, it's a decent choice and does its job.
