My first thought was duct tape....otherwise known as 200 mph tape or
Alabama Chrome. ;)

One item I've noticed mentioned on a couple of forums but you hardly ever see on these 'prep lists' is hose clamps. Like for radiator and other auto hoses. They are inexpensive, but would be hard to improvise.

Evidently they come in handy in DIY projects, also. One forum said to buy a box of each size, they cost very little, and will eventually be used for something, sometime, anyway. The main point was their current inexpensiveness, with the difficulty in improvising, if needed later

"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will
not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius
will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the
world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone
are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve
the problems of the human race"

~ Calvin Coolidge
