can this tape be used on a kerosene fuel line from an outdoor fuel tank?

why would you use heat tape on kerosene line? freeze point is like -50 degrees.... do you have water/condensation contamination in tank? i would capture any water with "dry gas for diesel" works great even if the line is frozen.

Kerosene freezes at -22F. Pipe lagging with insulation will stabilize at low temperature. Don't use the heat tape. It has a switch on it that will arc. The arc is an ignition source.

I used Gorilla tape around cast iron pipes and it worked fine. I then wrapped the insulation around the pipe and finally vapor barrier strips of plastic provided with the insulation around the outside of both.

yes but make sure you have the tarp lying flat to adhere the tape,I have used on a tarp and it's in Vermont weather, that should say something as we have it all rain-snow more snow more snow and sometimes even the sun

This would not be my first choice for outdoor use. My daughter has used a glue called "E-6000" for an outdoor project with good success. It dries very slowly, so on something like your project one would have to start at the bottom and do one or two rows at a time. It takes days for it to fully cure and stop off-gassing.

I would not use this with fuel. The product is top notch for many other projects.

Not sure. Kerosene has more of an oil substance than gas. I bought it for DEF fluid because it is corrosive.

I've used it on oil related problems only so far, however I lent it to my neighbor who has a air boat and he used it on every joint on it and he has not had any problems. If you follow the directions to the T I don't see why it wouldn't work. The manufacturer states the following, Brush on formulation. Dries to pliable film For water pump gasket hose connection, coolant hose connection, and heater valve gaskets. So I would think that there wouldn't be any problem using it with any water thermostat. Good luck, I love it.

I used the tape to repair a water leak in the kitchen sink just below the drain. The tape stretches a bit and adheres to itself during wrapping. I don't believe it would work for your particular need but would be nice to have in your Do it yourself tool kit.

Not really because its tape if you are looking for a "marine grade connector" that is different. there is a bit of glue inside of those that melts to give a waterproof seal. This is more for connecting loose wires for example in a car / cars wire harness. That said, if you were looking for a water resistant seal, if applied properly, I don't see how water would get in once heat was applied and it shrunk

No, i believe it's for propane only. The connector hose fits the same propane tanks that an outdoor grill uses.

I have been a mechanic all my life and I think it would work great. I used the sealer on a fuel tank and it worked great for me. It dries very hard and is tack free so should do well in a carburetor. It kind of warms your heart to know some still use carburetors.

Tape may be a problem down the line. Since Liquid Rubber is to be applied directly to roofing of RVs And other roofs similar in structure, anything in between the literal roof and the liquid rubber could form a barrier to good adhesion. I have however put small pieces of galvanized steel over holes and weakened pressboard areas of my RV roof. The small pieces of galvanized metal were thoroughly covered with Liquid Rubber which flowed over the surrounding area making a nice flat roof. No leaks into the third year after treating my roof to a Liquid Rubber sealing. Tape could be o.k. But tape and heat may cause a separation of the adhesive from the backing and thus weaken the Liquid Rubber Bond. BY THE WAY, I screwed the sheet metal to the sound portions of the roof and thus fixed it in place so as not to shift during the liquid rubber application.

I believe it would. I've used thinner and vinegar thru mine with no problems. You aren't supposed to but watch out for open flames and sparks. We aren't supposed to clean parts with gasoline but we all do. I wouldn't use gas with this but I probably would use kerosene.

I haver never made labels for outdoor use. I am sure there must be specific tapes made for outdoor use. The PT-700 can readily handle your project. It is an excellent label printer for the money.

In my review, I stated that I would not recommend using gorilla tape as a substitute for electrical tape. Especially on an outdoor project. I used it on the electrical wires on a trailer. When the tape got hot it came undone. It left a sticky ness that was hard to clean up.

Yes. I use a piece of 3/8 fuel line to drain my oil. Some folks use a clear plastic hose instead, but any 3/8 hose will work. Love mine!!

It should work fine for this purpose. I've been using this type of tape for over 24 years as electrical tape for aircraft applications. I stopped buying the traditional electric tape years ago, because it fails even in moderate heat applications. For beefing up the end of USB cables, this should be great, and you won't have the sticky mess that electrical tape usually makes after a short period of time. F4 tape (self sealing silicon tape) also works well for sealing small low pressure tubing.
