how thick is heat tape?
im building a rack, and i want to put it together but i dont have the heat tape. i was gonna use cd's as spacers, but was wondering if i need to worry about the thickness of heat tape. i bought the 4'' from rbi, but is it thick? like construction paper thick, or cd thick or what?

My 11" flexwatt is 0.0125 inches thick. I used a Vernier Micrometer to measure it, that is accurate to 0.0001 of an inch.
