I haven't see any reference to Scotch 2242 also known as one of several types
of "rubber linerless splicing tape". It is a self sealing, if installed
correctly, and it works well. Several wraps, (while stretching it) seals the
splice. The splice to my inverted 'L' lays on (usually) soggy ground near a
stream. Sometimes there is puddled water. After several years, cutting or
unwrapping the tape showed no corrosion. All was as shiny as when installed.
Cost is about 4.00 USD at Home Depot or ACE hardware for a 3/4" x 15' (5 yd.) -
(19mm x 4.5m). There is also a 1" (25.4mm) size.
