What is Mueller Tear Light Elastic Adhesive Tape (Black)? Its lightweight properties make this black tape ideal in situations where the wearer doesnt want a bulky strapping. It is commonly used by professional soccer players to tape their ankles as it allows them to still wear a soccer boot & doesnt interfere with their game. Because it has elastic properties it is also ideal to be used as a compression wrap. If the injured part swells then the wrap gives due to its elastic nature. When can I use it? In the acute stage (first 24-72 hours) following any sports injury: Ankle sprain prevention & rehabilitation Wrist sprains Knee ligament injuries Sizes 5cm x 6.9m (2" x 7½yards).7.5cm x 6.9m (2" x 7½yards). How does it work? This latex-free black tape will adhere securely to skin or can be used on top of M-Wrap foam underwrap (also available in our Physio Room Store). Its high quality manufacture means it comes off the roll smoothly & conforms to the body part that is being taped. It can be used to secure a tape job in order to provide physical support & increase proprioceptive awareness (giving sensory feedback to the brain that helps prevent the patient going over on the injured part).
