Finger tape – precise fixation for small joints
Finger tape is a specially narrow tape developed for the targeted support of small joints. Unlike conventional sports tape, it is significantly narrower and can be applied with particular precision to fingers, toes, or small joint areas. Its compact width allows for precise fixation without completely restricting mobility. Finger tape is used both for additional stability under high loads and for support during training.
Typically, finger tape is made of a non-stretch cotton material with a strong adhesive layer. It is skin-friendly, breathable, and can be torn off by hand without the need for scissors. The tape is applied either directly to the skin or in combination with a backing. Due to the small surface area it covers, finger tape is particularly popular in sports that require dexterity and grip strength.
A key feature of finger tape is its ability to provide targeted stability without significantly impairing hand function. It is suitable for taping individual finger joints, providing additional support during repeated use, or as a protective layer for stressed skin. Wrapping individual finger joints for added security is also a common application.
Finger tape is usually available in roll form and in various colors, widths, and adhesive strengths. It offers a simple yet effective solution to support delicate structures and meet the demands of intensive use. So, if you're looking to tape your fingers, this is the right choice.
