Heavy Elastic Adhesive Bandage EAB Tape for Sports Injury Support

Product Overview

At MediTapes, we understand that high-impact sports and professional rehabilitation require superior support solutions. Our Heavy Elastic Adhesive Bandage (EAB) is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of physiotherapy, sports medicine, and veterinary care. Often referred to in the industry as EAB tape, this product is the gold standard for providing maximum compression and reliable joint stability without compromising comfort.

Whether you are a sports team physiotherapist looking for the ultimate sports strapping tape for rugby matches, or a medical distributor sourcing a high-quality heavy compression bandage, MediTapes delivers a product that professionals trust. Our EAB is constructed from high-twist cotton with a strong zinc-oxide adhesive, ensuring it stays secure even under the most strenuous conditions.

Why Choose MediTapes Heavy EAB?

Our Heavy Elastic Adhesive Bandage stands out in the market due to its premium construction and versatility. Unlike light tearable tapes, our EAB is designed for scenarios where rigid support is non-negotiable.

1. Superior Tensile Strength & Support

The core of our EAB tape is its high-quality cotton fabric. It offers a high degree of elasticity while maintaining significant tensile strength. This allows the bandage to provide the “heavy” compression needed to control swelling or stabilize a joint (such as the ankle or knee) preventing hyperextension during play.

2. Advanced Adhesive Technology

We utilize a medical-grade, zinc-oxide adhesive formulation. This ensures the sports strapping tape maintains a secure hold on the skin or underwrap, even when the athlete is sweating profusely. The strong adhesion is crucial for long-duration sports like football, rugby, and marathons.

3. Breathable and Skin-Friendly

Despite its strong hold, comfort is paramount. Our manufacturing process involves a porous coating technique. This allows air to circulate through the bandage, letting the skin breathe and significantly reducing the risk of skin maceration or irritation during prolonged use.

4. Precision Application

Designed for professional application, our bandages feature soft, feathered edges to prevent the tape from cutting into the skin or rolling up. Furthermore, the optional center line (available in yellow or red) acts as a visual guide, ensuring consistent overlap for an even heavy compression bandage application.

Key Application Areas

The versatility of the MediTapes EAB tape makes it a staple inventory item for various sectors:

  • Rugby & Football Strapping: This is the preferred sports strapping tape for “ear taping” in scrums or creating “figure-of-eight” ankle wraps to prevent sprains.
  • Post-Operative Rehabilitation: Used by orthopedic surgeons and physios to provide compression to limit swelling (edema) after surgery.
  • Veterinary Use: Due to its durability, it is widely used as a hoof wrap or leg support for racehorses and livestock.
  • Heavy Dressing Retention: Ideal for securing splints or large wound dressings where standard tape would fail.

How to Apply Heavy EAB

For best results, we recommend applying the bandage to clean, dry skin or over a foam underwrap. Unroll the heavy compression bandage and apply with approximately 50% stretch for support, ensuring each turn overlaps the previous one by 50% (using the colored line as a guide). Do not apply with maximum tension to avoid restricting blood flow.
