Stan- 
The Duck tape in your Amazon link looks like your typical black electrical tape that hams use for wrapping coax connectors, etc., which would compare with Scotch 33 a lot closer than Scotch 44. The 44 looks to be the kind of stuff used as insulated wrappings inside electric motors and such. 
Just thought the 44 in your post might be a typo?
If so, color me extremely skeptical that the Duck stuff is equal to Scotch 33. 
My guess is it’s more like the cheap stuff you can get at Harbor Freight, etc.
