We always called this 400 foot tape - That is how deep we were in the
submarine before anyone noticed that the maintenance/repair people had forgot
to replace a 3 inch dia. through the hull valve and the opening was just taped
over. I don't recall the exact psi at 400 feet, but 50 psi is only 112 feet as
I recall so it is pretty good tape.
