3M Transpore Medical Tape 25mm — Box of 12

The 3M Transpore Medical Tape 25mm (1527-1) is a versatile, transparent plastic tape engineered for reliable securement and clinical efficiency. Recognized for its "easy-tear" perforated design, Transpore allows clinicians to customize the length and width of the tape by hand, tearing it cleanly in both directions. This eliminates the need for scissors during fast-paced medical procedures, making it an essential component for emergency kits, dressing stations, and surgical suites.

Manufactured by 3M, this tape features a strong, hypoallergenic adhesive that provides high initial tack, ensuring a secure hold on both skin and medical tubing. The transparent backing allows for continuous visual monitoring of the skin or the placement of an underlying device without needing to remove the tape. Its porous construction permits skin ventilation, while its water-resistant properties help maintain adhesion even in the presence of light moisture. This bulk pack contains 12 rolls, each measuring 25mm wide by 9.1m long, offering a high-performance securement solution for a wide range of clinical applications.
