Omniplast 1.25 cm x 5 m
DESCRIPTION
Hartmann Omniplast Adhesive Tape is a high-strength medical-grade fixation plaster designed for securing primary wound dressings, compresses, cannulas, probes, and catheters firmly to the skin. Constructed from a durable skin-colored textile fabric, it features a synthetic rubber adhesive coating applied in stripes to ensure high initial and ongoing tensile adhesion while maintaining breathability. The breathable fabric permits vapor and air exchange, preventing skin maceration under long-term application. Designed with zig-zag serrated edges, the tape can be easily torn by hand in both horizontal and vertical directions without requiring scissors, streamlining clinical workflows and daily first-aid applications. Each roll measures 1.25 cm in width by 5 meters in length.

Position the tape over the edge of the dressing, bandage, or medical device, pressing down firmly from the center outward to secure good adhesion.

Ensure the tape overlaps onto intact, healthy skin surrounding the dressing.
-
To remove, gently lift one edge and pull the tape back parallel to the skin surface to minimize skin traction.
