When applied properly, restricts the movement of ligaments, tendons and joints to prevent injury or re-injury under high-stress conditions. Constructed to be as stable as possible with a rubber zinc oxide adhesive mass.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is rigid strapping tape?
Rigid strapping tape is a form of athletic tape that limits high-impact movement of any given joint or muscle group. By strapping athletic tape to high-stress areas of the body, sportspeople can prevent injury or overuse of muscles and joints. The technique used to secure rigid strapping type varies depending on the area that it’s needed.
Rigid strapping tape is generally much stronger and stickier than regular athletic tape. This makes it more suited to sports that are very high-impact such as rugby league and mixed martial arts.
If you are considering purchasing rigid strapping tape, be sure learn the proper techniques for strapping each part of the body.
