Heavy-Duty Support for Larger Applications When a standard 1-inch strip isn't enough to hold a large dressing or stabilize a major joint, the Kemp USA 2" Porous Tape is the professional solution. With double the width of standard athletic tape, this 2-inch roll provides the surface area needed to secure heavy abdominal pads (ABD), splint leg fractures, or tape larger muscle groups like shoulders and knees.

Constructed from High-Tensile Cloth, this tape is engineered to withstand significant stress without snapping or stretching. Despite its rugged durability, the Microporous Fabric allows air to circulate to the skin, preventing moisture buildup and maceration during long-term wear. It features serrated edges for Easy Hand-Tearing, allowing responders and trainers to apply effective immobilization quickly without searching for scissors.

Key Features

  • Extra-Wide 2-Inch Profile: Covers more surface area per strip, making it ideal for securing bulky trauma dressings or taping larger athletes.
  • High Tensile Strength: The non-elastic woven backing provides rigid support, restricting range of motion to protect injured ligaments.
  • Breathable Comfort: Porous construction prevents sweat entrapment, reducing skin irritation and peeling.
  • Aggressive Adhesion: High-tack adhesive grips firmly to skin or pre-wrap, ensuring the tape job holds up under sweat and friction.
  • Latex-Free & DEHP-Free: Safe for use on sensitive skin, meeting modern safety standards for medical consumables.
  • Bulk Supply: Sold as a master case of 72 rolls (12 boxes of 6), perfect for restocking athletic departments and EMS supply rooms.

Why It Matters Using the right width saves time and material. Trying to secure a large 8x10 wound pad with thin 1-inch tape requires multiple passes and often fails. A single strip of 2-inch tape does the job instantly and securely.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the Kemp USA Porous Tape 2" x 10 yd come in a case of 72 rolls?

The Kemp USA Porous Tape SKU 11-157-2 is packaged as a case of 72 rolls (12 boxes with 6 rolls each) to meet the high-volume needs of medical facilities, athletic training rooms, EMS stations, and first responder units. This bulk packaging ensures you always have adequate supply on hand for wound care, bandaging, and athletic taping without frequent reordering. At $135.00 per case, you're getting approximately $1.88 per roll, making it cost-effective for organizations that go through medical tape quickly during daily operations or emergency response situations.

Can I tear the Kemp USA 2" x 10 yd Porous Tape by hand during an emergency?

Yes! The Kemp USA Porous Tape is specifically designed to tear easily by hand without scissors, making it ideal for rapid deployment in emergency medical situations, trauma response, or athletic injuries where every second counts. The cloth construction with high tensile strength allows clean hand-tearing while still maintaining secure adhesion and support once applied. This feature is critical for EMS professionals, first responders, and athletic trainers who need to work quickly in the field without fumbling for cutting tools.

Is the Kemp USA Porous Tape 2" x 10 yd latex-free for patients with allergies?

Absolutely. The Kemp USA Porous Tape is not made with natural rubber latex or DEHP (di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate), making it safe for patients with latex sensitivities or allergies. This is essential for medical kits, first aid stations, and athletic supplies where you may encounter individuals with latex allergies. The porous fabric construction still provides breathability and strong adhesion while eliminating common allergen concerns, ensuring you can confidently use this tape in diverse patient populations.

How does the porous fabric in this Kemp USA tape prevent skin irritation during extended wear?

The porous fabric design of the Kemp USA 2" x 10 yd tape enhances breathability by allowing airflow to reach the skin underneath, which reduces moisture buildup, prevents maceration, and promotes healthier skin during extended bandaging periods. This is particularly important for athletic taping that stays on during practice or competition, or for wound dressings that need to remain in place for hours or days. The tape conforms to body contours for improved adherence while the breathable construction minimizes the risk of skin breakdown or irritation common with non-porous tapes.

What makes the Kemp USA Porous Tape better for athletic training rooms than standard medical tape?

The Kemp USA Porous Tape combines high tensile strength for strong joint support with a conforming cloth construction that moves with the body during athletic activity. Unlike rigid tapes, this 2" x 10 yd porous tape adheres securely to body contours while allowing breathability—critical for athletes who sweat during training or competition. The hand-tearable design speeds up taping procedures when you're prepping multiple athletes, and the single-use disposable format ensures optimal hygiene between patients. With 72 rolls per case, athletic trainers have sufficient supply for an entire season of practices, games, and injury management.
