FAQs

Can I reuse this tape?

No, the HypaBand EAB tape is designed for single use only to maintain hygiene and adhesive effectiveness.

How do I remove the tape?

Gently unwind the tape, peeling it back slowly against the direction of application. For sensitive skin, a solvent specifically designed for adhesive removal can be used with caution.

What size are the tapes?

Each tape measures 2.5cm in width and 4.5cm in length.

Is this tape suitable for children?

The tape is suitable for general use. However, for children, ensure careful application and removal to avoid discomfort or skin damage. Supervision is recommended during application and removal.

Can this tape be used on broken skin?

Yes, it is designed to secure dressings over wounds. Ensure the wound is properly cleaned and covered with a sterile dressing before applying the tape.

What material is the tape made from?

The tape is made from a fabric material.

How many rolls are in a pack?

This pack contains three rolls of HypaBand EAB tape.

Troubleshooting

Tape not sticking well

Ensure the skin and any underlying dressing are clean and completely dry before application. Avoid touching the adhesive side.

Skin irritation upon removal

Apply tape gently and avoid over-tightening. If irritation occurs, remove the tape slowly and consider using a hypoallergenic underwrap for future applications. Consult a healthcare professional if irritation persists.

Tape unraveling during use

Ensure adequate overlap when applying subsequent layers of tape. The tape adheres to itself, so proper overlap is crucial for a secure application.

Difficulty tearing the tape

While hand-tearable, some initial resistance may be felt. Use a firm, quick tearing motion. Ensure the tape is not excessively stretched before attempting to tear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
