Applications of Tamiya Glass Tape in RC Models

The Tamiya 54328 Glass Tape, at 18mm wide and 55m long, is a useful workshop staple for anyone who needs extra secure fixing. Its reinforced fabric body gives a stronger clamp for batteries and components compared with standard hobby tapes.

Dependable Fixing for Battery Packs

Use this tape to anchor stick battery packs to touring and touring-style chassis where a firm hold is essential. Its enhanced tensile strength helps reduce movement under braking and sudden direction changes.

Useful for Multiple Workshop Tasks

Besides battery mounting, the Tamiya 54328 is effective for securing cables, strengthening thin lexan edges, and making quick, tidy repairs before a run. The long roll length keeps it handy for many sessions.

Can this tape be safely used on painted surfaces?

Yes, but if the paint is delicate test first on an inconspicuous area. Removing the tape slowly will reduce the chance of lifting paint.

How does it compare with cloth tape?

The glass tape tends to have higher tensile strength and better resistance to stretching than standard cloth tape, making it better for firm battery mounts.

What is the best way to remove residue?

Use a little isopropyl alcohol or a mild solvent to remove sticky residue, and wipe with a clean cloth to avoid damage to plastics or paint.

Is this tape suitable for electric bike or scooter repairs?

While designed for RC use, the tape can be used for light mechanical fixes on other hobby projects. For heavy-duty transport applications seek specialist materials.

How many rolls should I keep in the pit box?

One roll of Tamiya 54328 will last many sessions thanks to its 55m length, but keeping a spare roll is sensible for busy race days or club meetings.
