3M Nexcare Gentle Paper Tape 1 in × 10 yd

Gentle Paper Tape for Fragile Skin

This first-aid tape tears easily by hand so you can size each strip without scissors. The hypoallergenic adhesive is designed for repeated taping on fragile skin and frequent gauze changes. It provides a medium hold that stays in place for 24 hours while remaining non-irritating. The same tape is used in major U.S. hospitals for sensitive care.

Limits of Medium-Hold Adhesion

The gentle formulation prioritises easy removal over maximum bonding strength, so it may not secure heavy dressings or withstand high-friction areas. Breathability relies on the paper backing, which can lose adhesion if the skin is oily or the site becomes wet. Users needing waterproof fixation or aggressive hold should consider a different tape style. Latex-free construction avoids natural-rubber reactions.

1 in × 10 yd Roll with Dispenser

Each roll delivers 360 inches of white tape housed in a built-in dispenser for one-handed tearing. The 1-inch width suits most gauze pads and small wound sites without trimming. A single roll covers multiple dressing changes, reducing the need for frequent restocking. No other dimensions or quantities are included in this package.
