English term or phrase: duct tape
"duct taped packages" (i.e., wrapped in duct tape). In any event it is the adhesive tape used for ducts. This is so obvious is not translated anywhere--and I've looked in Simon & Schuster, Oxford, Larousse, Robbs' Engineering Dict. & Collazo's. Any help from my learnéd colleagueswill be appreciated.

Explanation:
I found the definition, if it is of help: duct tape NOUN : "A usually silver adhesive tape made of cloth mesh coated with a waterproof
material, originally designed for sealing heating and air-conditioning ducts. ".
I am still searching for the translation, though.

Good luck,
