Elastoplast Sport Rigid Strapping Tape is a robust supportive tape that stabilises joints during vigorous physical activity in all conditions. Effective in both preventative and rehabilitation taping techniques.
Restricts the movement of ligaments, tendons and joints to prevent injury or re-injury under high-stress conditions. Constructed to be as stable as possible with a rubber zinc oxide adhesive mass.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I remove rigid strapping tape?
The most ideal way to remove strapping tape is with purpose-made bandage scissors. Place scissors over a soft part of your limb, then slide under the tape and cut. Use your fingers to peel down gently and evenly over the top of the tape. Avoid peeling at right angles away from the limb.
Elastoplast strapping tapes are designed to not leave behind residue, but will sometimes remain quite sticky, even after extended periods of sweating. If removing your strapping tape is causing pain, try applying tape remover, eucalyptus oil or rubbing alcohol to dissolve the adhesive mass.
