Cramer 1050i athletic tape is a high quality porous and latex free tape that comes in useful for treating or preventing soft tissue injuries as well as cuts, scrapes and other similar skin damage.
Zinc oxide tapes are made of cotton and/or polyester and have a zinc oxide adhesive mass backing. They can adhere directly to the skin as well as to other surfaces.
They will support less highly contoured body areas at a lower cost than if using elastic adhesive tapes. However, due to their lack of elasticity, most non elastic adhesives perform less satisfactorily in application to contoured areas. For example, when seeking to stabilize contoured areas like the shoulder or elbow, a rigid tape (see below) may be preferred.
Zinc oxide tapes fall into two categories. Some are basic cotton tapes with a zinc oxide based adhesive. Others (rigid strapping tapes like that from DynaPro Health) have a rayon backing and use a stronger zinc oxide adhesive.
The more powerful adhesive in rigid strapping tapes provides additional support and stability and prevents injury. However, this adhesive may cause medical reactions in certain individuals. In these cases it may be necessary to wear a hypoallergenic fixing bandage between the tape and the skin.
You can also buy these tapes with or without latex. Latex free tapes like DynaPro Health Porous Zinc Oxide Tape are more easily tolerated over long periods of time by individuals with a history of latex allergies. They are also less likely to cause adverse reactions from individuals with generally sensitive skin.
Another important sub category of these tapes is that consisting of porous tapes. These tapes have a construction that allows the athlete’s sweat to migrate through the material of the tape.
The result is that the athlete’s skin remains cool and dry underneath the tape. The athlete’s natural body temperature is maintained.
Just as is the case with elastic adhesive tapes, you can determine the quality of a zinc oxide tape based on the following:
Lower quality zinc oxide tapes, on the other hand, have 65 or fewer longitudinal fibers. They also tend to have no more than 45 vertical fibers per square inch of backing.
The adhesive needs to be of a quality and amount that will withstand the twisting and other forces exerted by the athlete during activity. It will also need to be capable of withstanding moisture (primarily perspiration) and mud during use. It must even withstand adverse weather conditions while being worn.
Zinc oxide tape is widely used:
In applying zinc oxide tape, we suggest adhering to the following general principles:
