Introducing CL-W6064: Not Your Father’s Duct Tape

What started as a battlefield repair tool has truly become an iconic American fix-all, helping DIYers and professional contractors out of sticky situations throughout the years.  But this isn’t just another duct tape.  CL-W6064 is better. Much, much better.  


Remember that story about the pilot in Alaska who repaired his bear-ravaged plane with duct tape to fly home? Or the time astronauts used duct tape to save the Apollo 13 space mission?

What started as a battlefield repair tool has truly become an iconic American fix-all, helping DIYers, professional contractors and dads out of sticky situations throughout the years.

But this isn’t your father’s duct tape. CL-W6064 is better.  Much, much better. 

Our proprietary, industrial-strength, utility-grade tape is a 21st-century duct tape designed to tackle 21st Century challenges.

“The inspiration for CL-W6064 is the culmination of forty years of experience in pressure-sensitive adhesives combined with the frustrations professional contractors encounter daily on the job site,” says Risa Edelstein. “We wanted to create a material that was strong but lightweight, industrial quality without requiring industrial equipment to use and took advantage of the inherent versatility of duct tape.”

Indeed, when it comes to high-performance building, the average duct tape just doesn’t cut it.  

ECHOtape CL-W6064 strikes a delicate balance between strength and usability, providing the maximum amount of sticking power without sacrificing ease of use. How did we make that happen? By using new, advanced technology — a two head coating process.  The first coat ensures high sheer strength, and the second coat, high initial tack.  The result is a beautifully streamlined piece of tape that is lighter, yet stronger than you would imagine, and easy to unwind.

The combination of an aggressive adhesive, flexible backing and rugged all-weather shell makes it one of the few professional-grade tapes to consistently stick to smooth, rough or uneven surfaces, indoors or out.

Furthermore, we implemented a special quality control process where testing the thickness of the adhesive happens inline – during the manufacturing process. This allows the tape to be made precisely to spec and provides better quality control.

The combination of an aggressive adhesive, flexible backing and rugged all-weather shell makes it one of the few professional-grade tapes to consistently stick to smooth, rough or uneven surfaces, indoors or out. It’s completely hand-tearable, leaving a crisp, clean edge, and the uniquely engineered mesh lays flat on any surface, with no twisting or curling.
