Frequently Asked Questions

Q: When would I use 25mm rigid tape instead of 38mm?

A: The 25mm width is ideal for strapping fingers, thumbs and toes where 38mm tape is too wide and bulky. It can also be used for more precise strapping technique on smaller joint areas. For ankle, knee and shoulder strapping, the 38mm width is more appropriate for comprehensive coverage.

Q: How many finger strapping applications can I get from one roll?

A: A 13.7m roll typically provides approximately 15–20 finger or thumb strapping applications depending on the technique and number of layers used. Buddy strapping (taping one finger to an adjacent one) uses less tape than full island strapping techniques.

Q: Does rigid tape need to be applied by a trained person?

A: For simple buddy strapping of fingers, most people can self-apply with basic guidance. For complex joint strapping techniques used in competitive sport, training from a physiotherapist or sports trainer is recommended to ensure correct application and avoid potential circulation issues from over-tight strapping.

Q: How do I remove rigid zinc oxide tape without damaging skin?

A: Remove rigid tape by pulling slowly and steadily in the direction of hair growth, keeping the tape close to the skin rather than lifting away sharply. Using a purpose-made adhesive tape remover or baby oil can significantly reduce discomfort and skin trauma during removal. Never rip tape off quickly.
