Why We Like The Rim Tape
We use Rim Tape from Orange Seal because it’s slightly elastic, allowing it to closely follow different rim profiles and prevent unwanted leaks. It’s available in 18mm and 24mm widths to accommodate most rims, from roadie wheels to MTB.

Doesn't work well
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Weight:
- null
The tape is thin and requires a lot of stretching and pressing into place to get something close to a seal, but I've had the Orange Seal tape either refuse to ever create a seal, blow out as the tire was inflated the first time, or blow out on the road over the four times I've tried it.

This didn't work
- Familiarity:
- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Weight:
- null
Sealing up a set of tubless compatible alloy road rims, and found this tape to be super thin - deforming to the spoke holes so much that it didn't hold a seal. I ended up having success with duct tape and would recommend that approach instead of buying expensive rim tape.
