Yes, I've had my yurt out there with the same FSK tape on it for four years in a row.
I use BDF tape for the ring, and for securing the two halves of the roof together. Last year my yurt blew down, the BDF tape at the ring didn't hold, the FSK tape held the hinges together. Probably more of an issue of applying tape to a dusty surface, but enough of a test case to prove the strength of FSK for me. The FSK is the best option for hinges, IMO. I also use it to cover the edges of the foil tape I used on the ends of the panels. After a few years they get beat up, and can kinda bubble up from the surface of the boards. It's nice to be able to seal them down flat with something that will match the foil of the panels and not degrade in sunlight.
