Frequently asked questions
Can I use it to hold a finger splint?
Yes, the maker lists finger splints among its uses. Follow the splint's own fitting instructions for the angle of the finger.
Can someone with a latex allergy use this tape?
Yes, the maker lists it as latex-free. Still test a small patch of skin first, since any adhesive can irritate.
