Tape ATHLETIC 1.5x15 yds-DYN-3596BOX OF 8

Support peak performance and protect vulnerable joints from hyperextension with Dynarex 3596 Premium Athletic Tape. Engineered for elite athletes, physical therapists, and sports medicine professionals, this rigid sports tape is designed to provide unyielding skeletal support and stabilization under the most demanding physical conditions.

Whether you are taping a baseball player's wrist, an offensive lineman's fingers, or a runner's ankle, this high-tensile cotton wrap ensures your joints stay properly aligned, reducing the risk of acute sprains and strains during high-impact activities.

Key Features

• Rigid Non-Elastic Support: Crafted from premium-grade cotton fabric with zero stretch. This maximum rigidity locks joints firmly into position, providing the mechanical resistance needed to prevent hyper-flexion or unwanted joint rolling.

• High-Performance Zinc Oxide Adhesive: Infused with a heavy-duty zinc oxide adhesive formula that bonds aggressively to skin or underwrap. It is engineered to maintain its structural grip through heavy sweating, friction, and shifting weather conditions without slipping.

• Convenient Easy-Tear Edges: Features a micro-serrated zig-zag edge design that allows trainers and athletes to cleanly tear the tape both horizontally and vertically by hand. No scissors are required, enabling rapid adjustments on the sideline or in the locker room.

• Breathable and Lightweight: The porous weave of the cotton allows sweat and heat to escape from the skin, minimizing moisture buildup underneath the tape and reducing the likelihood of skin maceration or blisters.

• Residue-Free Removal: While designed for a tight, immovable hold during competition, the adhesive is engineered to release smoothly upon removal, minimizing skin trauma and leaving minimal sticky residue behind.

Common Applications

The Dynarex 3596 Athletic Tape is a staple tool in sports medicine, highly effective for:

• Joint Immobilization & Prophylaxis: Wrapping ankles, wrists, fingers, and thumbs to protect against structural damage during high-contact sports like football, rugby, basketball, and MMA.

• Equipment Modification: Wrapping hockey sticks, baseball bats, or gymnastic bars to create a custom, slip-resistant grip.

• Medical Securing: Holding heavy primary wound care dressings, ice packs, or protective foam padding securely in place during vigorous movement.

Taping Best Practices for Maximum Efficacy

1. Skin Preparation: For the strongest possible bond, ensure the target area is clean, dry, and free of oils, lotions, or topical liniments. Shaving the area prior to application is highly recommended to prevent discomfort during tape removal.

2. Consider Underwrap: If the patient has sensitive skin or requires daily taping, apply a thin layer of foam athletic underwrap (pre-wrap) before applying the rigid tape to protect the skin barrier.

3. Avoid Constriction: Apply the tape smoothly without excessive tension on circular wraps to avoid constricting blood circulation. Check the fingers or toes post-application to ensure proper blood flow and capillary refill.

• Athletic Training Departments: Outfitting high school, collegiate, or professional training rooms with dependable, standard-sized tape.
