This is the usual price at Menards. Then 11% off is usually available.

But if you're not near one of those stores, this is a decent price.

As for what it's for, air sealing, not just ducts, but any penetrations (to air you don't want inside) are good candidates.

The nicest thing about it over something like caulk/silicone/spray foam is that it stays pliable forever so you can remove it and it's not glueing things in place, which make it especially useful to seal holes with wires/hoses going through.

Be extra careful if you decide to do the same, but these are the areas I put duct seal in my home, basically just pack it in to fill all the books and crannies where air could get through.

In my breaker box where my main lines come through from the outside.
In all the holes where my mini-split (AC) lines penetrate the walls.
In the boxes of all my electrical receptacles. You might think interior wall boxes aren't important but often the interior wall cavities are just as leaky since most top plates are not air sealed.
Bathroom exhaust fan housings; these boxes are notoriously full of holes/gaps and ideally you could seal them before install, but you can cover the majority with actual foil tape them use duct seal in the remaining areas that need it.

There are probably a lot of other good uses, like actually duct work, but I don't have any of that anymore. Before I used fiberglass mesh (drywall) tape and used actual duct mastic to completely cover all seams and joints, but this duct could have worked too, it's just not what I would use in that application unless it's your only option.

Actually 2.49, 2.22 after rebate for me at my local Menards. Prices must vary widely across the country.

Well that's interesting, I didn't realize their prices were so regional. I just checked in a different state and got a totally different price than both of us.

Yep I just learned this today too!

Really interesting to me since I live at a state line with Menard's on both sides, I'll definitely be comparing prices now, the extra 8 minute drive might save me real money in the future.
