Description
For applying functional bandages, in addition to significant skill, good material is a requirement. The traditional tape Leukotape classic is a non-stretch, highly adhesive tape that meets all the set requirements in every respect.
Properties
Leukotape classic is made of non-stretch, white cotton fabric. The tape has high adhesive and tensile strength. The zinc oxide-rubber adhesive provides excellent adhesion, both to the skin and to any skin-protective underlayer. Even under heavy loads, the tape stays firmly in place. The rigidity of the material provides a stabilizing effect, both mechanically and proprioceptively.
The outer side of the carrier material is impregnated and water-repellent. The plastic core of Leukotape classic has rounded edges, so it does not cut into the skin when unwinding.
Leukotape classic is, thanks to its lightly serrated edge, easily tearable by hand in length or width, making the use of scissors unnecessary. This tearability does not affect the tensile strength of the carrier material, allowing large forces to be absorbed with Leukotape classic.
