The Tan Zinc Oxide Tape is made from a superior rayon fabric, which is inherently stronger and more durable than the cotton typically used in white zinc tape. It also features a more powerful adhesive, making it three times as sticky.
Yes, the thick rayon fabric is specifically designed to help prevent blisters, particularly on the feet around the heel and ankle. It acts as a protective barrier against friction.
Absolutely. This rigid strapping tape is ideal for immobilizing joints and restricting movement, making it a popular choice for managing sports injuries and providing stability.
Apply to clean, dry skin without oils or lotions. Ensure the joint is in a slightly stretched position during application for optimal support and movement allowance. Press firmly to secure the adhesive.
The tape is 3.8cm wide, which is considered a versatile size. It's commonly used for knees, wrists, ankles, and as a general sports injury tape where joint restriction is needed.
While effective, the powerful adhesive may be too strong for extremely sensitive skin. It's recommended to test on a small area first or consider using a protective underwrap.
Store the tape in a cool, dry location, away from direct sunlight. Keeping the roll clean will also help preserve the adhesive's effectiveness.
Ensure skin is thoroughly cleaned and dried before application. Avoid applying lotions or oils. Press tape down firmly after application.
Discontinue use immediately. Ensure skin is clean and dry before application. Try a test patch on a small area first. Consider using a hypoallergenic underwrap if re-applying.
Apply tape to dry skin. Ensure adequate pressure is applied during application. Consider using anchor strips at the beginning and end of the taping application.
Remove tape slowly and at a low angle, pulling it back on itself. Soaking the tape with warm water or using a tape remover solution can help.
Application:
Compatibility:
This tape is compatible with most skin types but may be too strong for individuals with extremely sensitive skin. It is designed for use on joints and extremities like ankles, knees, wrists, and feet. It is not recommended for use on open wounds.
Care:
Store the tape in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve its adhesive quality. Keep the roll clean to prevent debris from interfering with the tape's stickiness. After use, remove the tape slowly and carefully to minimize skin irritation. If irritation occurs, discontinue use.
