MedVance® Silicone Tape is designed to deliver enhanced conformability, extensibility, transparency and reliable adhesion through the use of extra-thick medical-grade silicone adhesive under a thin polyurethane backing. MedVance Silicone Tape is waterproof, provides a low coefficient of friction, and tears easily for quick and practical application.
Premium hypoallergenic silicone adhesive remains securely in place while allowing atraumatic, pain-free removal with no adhesive residue.
Features and Benefits
• Highly conformable and extensible
• Comfortable to wear
• Unlike nonwoven tapes, extends to remain in place when stretched
• Extra-thick, medical-grade adhesive provides superior, reliable, durable adhesion
• Stays in place when others fail over joints, including heels, knees and elbows
• Reliable secondary and “window frame” seal-and-secure
• Superior holding power to secure tubing, cannulas and devices
• Transparent for sub-tape visualization of skin condition
• Low coefficient of friction to reduce friction, shear and skin tears
• Perforated for practical tear-to-length convenience
• Easy, atraumatic, pain-free removal without MARSI (Medical Adhesive Related Skin Injury)
• Silicone products may mitigate the appearance of scars during the remodeling phase
• Repositionable for optimal positioning and maximum utility under tubing and canulae
