The Ultimate Tubeless Tape is engineered for riders who demand a truly airtight, long-lasting tubeless setup across road, gravel, and mixed-surface wheels. As tubeless systems continue to evolve with wider rims, higher tolerances, and lower operating pressures, the role of rim tape has become critical. Silca designed the Ultimate Tubeless Tape to address sealing reliability at its source, creating a system that installs cleanly, holds air consistently, and resists the common failure points seen with traditional tapes.

At the core of the Ultimate Tubeless Tape is a high-strength polymer film paired with an aggressive, pressure-sensitive adhesive. This combination allows the tape to conform precisely to modern rim beds, including asymmetric profiles and deep center channels. Once applied, the adhesive bonds securely to the rim surface, forming a continuous air barrier that remains stable under temperature changes, pressure fluctuations, and repeated tire removals.

Unlike thinner or fabric-style tapes that can stretch, tear, or lift over time, Silca’s Ultimate Tubeless Tape is designed to maintain its structure. The material resists punctures from spoke holes and prevents adhesive creep, even when exposed to sealant for extended periods. This durability makes it particularly well suited for high-mileage gravel riders and endurance road cyclists who rely on consistent air retention far from home.... Read More
