Duct tape has trouble sticking to damp and wet surfaces. Also, at 37/98.6 body temp it might cause the adhesive to release, leaving you with tools and tape stuck in your heinie. Not to mention, it has that internal structure that gives it strength which would translate to being a bit umm… rough.
Maybe some electrical heatshrink over the thing would provide compression to hold it together, but a smooth surface for “installation”
