Description:
A clear, peel-and-stick patch made for vinyl and PVC. Tear-Aid Patch Type B (NRS item 37976.01) seals holes and tears in PVC and vinyl gear such as dry bags, rain gear, air mattresses and raft seats, and it stays airtight and watertight under pressure. Its special adhesive resists the oils in vinyl that turn other glues gummy in the sun, which makes it a solid pick for a team's boat and gear repair kit. Find more dry suit care and repair supplies.
