Is there a term in Turkish for 'duct tape' or 'duck tape', the heavy duty, cloth based tape that is essential to the maintenance of all modern technology? I know that 'bant' is 'tape' but I don't know how to specify duct tape rather than electrical or packaging tape.

Thanks

No there is no special term for it but some says "meta bant" or "boru bantı" for it.Because of its view...Besides lots of people dont even know what it is...

Thanks hexagonoo. I'm amazed that I'm having difficulty finding a roll, since it's so common in the U.S. and used for repairing almost everything.

If u r trying to find it in İstanbul,u should go Bauhaus or other big malls which is selling cunstruction stuff.You can easily find it there or u can find it in Karaköy.

I'm in İliç, between Divriği and Erzincan, and the local shops don't carry it. Next time I'm in Erzincan, I'll look for some there.
