This rigid zinc oxide tape earns its place in every cadet and survival first-aid kit. At 2.5cm wide it’s ideal for taping fingers, supporting wrists and covering blisters and calluses on long tabs — firm support for smaller joints where wider tape won’t sit.
Key Features
- High-tensile rigid backing – holds joints and tendons securely through a full field day.
- 2.5cm width – perfect for fingers, wrists and blister cover.
- Serrated edge – tears cleanly by hand, no scissors needed mid-exercise.
- Strong skin-friendly adhesive – stays put when wet or sweaty.
- Compact roll – packs small in any survival or DofE first-aid pouch.
On a DofE or expedition, tape hot-spots on the heel before they blister to keep moving comfortably. On a cadet field exercise it doubles as quick kit repair and finger support during fieldcraft.
