This is a 2-inch-wide, 15-foot roll of self-adhesive foam pipe wrap with a foil backing. It wraps around hot or cold water pipes in one step: peel and press, no clamps or tape needed. The foil layer reflects heat and blocks moisture, while the foam slows heat loss on hot lines and stops condensation on cold ones. It also quiets pipe noise and vibration. It suits DIYers insulating exposed basement, crawlspace or under-sink pipes. Compared with plain foam sleeves, the self-adhesive backing and foil facing make it easier to fit around bends and fittings, though it is thinner than rigid foam tubes and less suited to long straight runs.

Frost King Foil and Self-Adhesive Foam Pipe Wrap Insulation Tape insulates both hot and cold pipes. It has a foil backing and a foam layer, and it installs in one step.
On hot pipes, the wrap helps stop wasteful heat loss. On cold pipes, it can stop sweaty pipes, which can cause mold. The tape also dampens sound and vibration.
