Safety First Aid HypaPlast Medium Microporous Tape – 2.5cm x 5m (D4703)

Description

Genuine Safety First Aid · Part no. D4703

Safety First Aid D4703 is HypaPlast microporous tape, a white non-woven paper tape on a 2.5cm x 5m roll for holding dressings in place. It tears cleanly by hand, lets the skin breathe and uses a hypoallergenic adhesive, so it comes off with little pulling, which suits elderly or sensitive skin and dressings that are changed often.

Good to know

• Paper tape or fabric strapping? Paper tape is gentle and light, good for securing a dressing on the arm, leg or face; on knuckles and joints that bend all day, fabric strapping holds better.
• Does it stay on when wet? It is a paper tape and is not described as waterproof, so for hands that will be in water or oil choose a waterproof strapping instead.
• How do I remove it without hurting? Peel it back low and slow along the skin, holding the skin down next to the tape, rather than ripping it upward.

Which one?

For a stronger, flexible hold on joints use the HypaBand Fabric Strapping – 2.5cm x 4.5m (D4322); for wet or oily work, the HypaPlast Pink Waterproof Strapping – 2.5cm x 5m (D7044).
