It can be used to make a waterproof backing on clothes, and was even used to seal ammunition cases during World War II. It has even been used for sealing heating and air conditioning ducts.

It is always a good idea to keep some in your outdoor kit. You do not need 500 meters of tape with you; you may not ever find a use for it! But if you do need it and you do not have any with you, you will surely wish you did.
