TACO Marine Hatch Tape, 1/8 Inch x 3/4 Inch x 8 Feet, Closed-Cell Foam Anti-Rattle Seal
TACO Marine Hatch Tape, 1/8 Inch x 3/4 Inch x 8 Feet, Closed-Cell Foam Anti-Rattle Seal
This TACO Marine Hatch Tape is a closed-cell foam sealing tape sized 1/8 inch thick by 3/4 inch wide by 8 feet long, designed to cushion and quiet boat hatches, doors, lockers, and other fiberglass or metal panels that rattle or need a weather seal. The foam construction compresses to fill gaps between mating surfaces, providing an anti-rattle cushion while also helping block wind, spray, and moisture from working through hatch and locker seams. Because it is self-adhesive, it installs directly onto clean, dry marine surfaces such as fiberglass, painted surfaces, and metal without additional fasteners or adhesive products, making it a straightforward repair or upgrade for hatch lids, storage compartments, access panels, and other closures where a tight, quiet fit is wanted.
The tape is supplied in a continuous 8 foot length at 1/8 inch thickness and 3/4 inch width, allowing it to be cut to fit the exact perimeter of a hatch opening or trimmed for shorter runs on smaller compartments. Its foam composition is intended for ongoing outdoor and marine use, standing up to the surface exposure that hatches and lockers see on a boat.
