The tape shown in the evidence photos that have been released of the gas can, is a very unusual, unique type of duct tape.
I became curious after viewing the pictures because in 35 years of commercial construction here in Florida, I have never seen duct tape with the manufacturers logo, temperature tolerance, model numbers, etc. printed on the face of the tape.
I sent e-mails to the Henkel Corp. questioning the type of tape shown in the photos of the gas can. I received an e-mail reply from Henkel identifying the tape as Henkel Fireguard Duck Tape, which has since been discontinued
Henkel Fireguard Duck Tape was designed to hold, seam, and seal HVAC sheet metal and flex ducts according to company information bulletins.
Henkel Fireguard Duck Tape held such a minor share of Henkels sales, it has been discontinued. A minor share, of a less than major share, of duct tape sales in general does not qualify for the most common duct tape sold in this country as stated by the defense.
If the Anthony's had work done to their home's a/c and heating system, that could have been the source of this unique type of tape.
