Hypafix Wide-Area Fixation, 5 cm x 10 m, 1 Roll

This tape stays fixed down, even on areas of the body subject to lots of movement and flexing. Great for fixing down dressings/bandages etc, and reinforcing adhesive dressings. Easy to cut and apply. Long lasting. I relied heavily on this tape while treating a wound on my lower right side.

Bought this to stick a freezer bag (yep!) over a dressing so that I could have a shower. Worked perfectly. Thanks.

Although this might seem inadequate to prevent blisters as it is just a thin tape, it has worked very well for me and is so much cheaper than the moleskin pads. The silicone heel cups work well but you can only use those for about 8 hours a day (and they take up room in your shoes) but the tape can stay on for a couple of days, even surviving your morning shower, but surprisingly removes without leaving a sticky mess. Great for everyday use.

I have been using Hypafix for many years, having had it recommended to me by a Physio.I've found a great variety of uses for it, so it's something I always keep in my Sports and First Aid bags!I primarily use it as sports tape for strapping techniques which help prevent injury, as I have weak ligaments and soft tissues. I have found it more adhesive than other sports tapes and it is significantly cheaper!As this tape is easy to cut into the sizes you need, it works well for all areas of the body. I have used this size to strap big joints like knees and ankles as well as strapping my little finger!The tape sticks really well. It will last for a few days if the corners aren't frequently rubbing against material. I've also found it pretty painless to remove and doesn't leave sticky residue that's impossible to remove like some adhesive tapes.Hypafix is also great for use in dressing wounds. It's perfect to secure a gauze to a difficult area like a knee scrape and lasts well.I am prone to getting blisters on the ball of my foot. I tried all kinds of prevention techniques. One day I tried sticking Hypafix to the ball of my foot and behold - blister free! Never had blisters since applying Hypafix, but if I forget it - the blisters are straight back (but - Hypafix to the rescue again - great for securing gauze/padding to the worst blisters!).Finally - if you want evidence for how good the adhesive is, here it is! We arrived at a netball game a while back to find that the post had broken - the ring had become detached from the post. We re-attached it by wrapping Hypafix around the mount and the post. A few windy, rainy weeks later we returned and the Hypafix was still wrapped around the post holding the net on!

Just what the Chiropodist uses and recommends. Great product does what it says and is allergy free. Cannot be bought on the high street. Prompt delivery thank you seller.

good strong medical tape.

Being a diabetic with severe neuropathy, I find that I'm always having to put dressings on assorted wounds.This tape has never let me down. It adheres well and is easy to handle.

Super efficient service and good product
