3M Durapore Silk-Like Cloth Medical Tape, 3 Inch x 10 Yard, White

The 3M Durapore Silk-Like Cloth Medical Tape is a strong, reliable surgical tape designed to secure tubes, devices, and dressings when dependable holding power matters most. Its silk-like cloth backing makes it a favorite among clinicians and caregivers for taping down catheters, IV lines, and other equipment, as well as immobilizing fingers and toes and stabilizing splints. If you need a versatile tape that stays put yet remains gentle enough for sensitive skin, Durapore delivers professional-grade performance in a convenient home or clinical format.

Durapore's nonstretch cloth retains its shape for consistent, reliable adhesion, while still conforming to the body for a personalized fit. The bi-directional tear lets you cut strips quickly by hand—no scissors needed—and because the white tape doesn't stick to gloves, you can tear it easily even while gloved. That combination of strong hold and fast application makes it ideal for busy caregivers and anyone who needs a secure, comfortable tape they can trust.

This tape is hypoallergenic and formulated to be safe for sensitive skin. Each roll measures 3 inches wide by 10 yards long in a clean white color. It is available in multiple purchase options—choose a single roll, a box of 4, or a case of 40—so you can stock the right quantity for your needs. Medical tape is typically FSA/HSA eligible.
