BSN Medical Leukotape P High Adhesive Rigid Strapping Tape 3.8cm X 13.7m Roll

Why Choose BSN Medical Leukotape P

Effective joint stabilization during physical activity or rehabilitation requires a tape that does not stretch — because stretch allows the joint to move through the range the tape is meant to restrict. Leukotape P uses a rigid, non-elastic rayon backing that holds its shape under load, providing the mechanical resistance needed to limit excessive joint excursion during functional movement. The zinc oxide adhesive is formulated for high initial tack and sustained hold through perspiration and activity, which is why Leukotape P has become the standard tape in patellofemoral taping techniques, where the tape must maintain consistent tension across the kneecap through an entire exercise session or working day. The hand-tearable construction means clinicians can apply and adjust the tape quickly without scissors during assessment or taping sessions, and the porous rayon backing allows moisture vapour to escape rather than accumulating under the tape — improving comfort and skin tolerance during extended wear. At 3.8 cm × 13.7 m per roll, it is sized for a full range of clinical taping applications from ankle stabilization to shoulder posture correction.

Usage and Care

Prepare the skin by cleaning and drying the area thoroughly before application — for sensitive skin or areas requiring repeated taping, apply a skin-protective pre-tape underwrap (such as Fixomull or foam underwrap) before applying Leukotape P directly. Tear the tape to the required length and apply with firm, even tension in the direction indicated by the taping technique being used. Smooth the tape down firmly across its full surface to activate adhesion. Remove by peeling back slowly in the direction of hair growth and support the skin ahead of the tape edge during removal to minimize skin stress. Do not apply directly over open wounds, broken skin, or areas with known zinc oxide sensitivity. Store the roll in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight to maintain adhesive integrity.
