3M Medical Tape 4076, Polyester Spunlace Nonwoven
An extended wear medical tape with a white polyester spunlace nonwoven backing and acrylic adhesive, used in health care medical device construction.
3M Medical Tape 4076, Polyester Spunlace Nonwoven Extended Wear, is a medical component tape built from a white spunlace polyester backing coated with a pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive. It is designed for use in the manufacture of health care medical devices, providing a soft, cloth like backing that suits products intended to stay on the skin for longer periods without excessive irritation.
Device manufacturers use tapes like this one as a raw material within finished products such as wound dressings, wearable monitors or other skin contact medical devices, incorporating the tape during their own assembly or converting process. The nonwoven spunlace construction gives a degree of breathability and flexibility compared with film backed tapes, which is one reason it is specified for extended wear applications where comfort over time matters.
Facilities purchasing this tape are typically medical device manufacturers rather than clinicians, and should confirm the roll dimensions and adhesive strength suit their specific device design before committing to a production order, since extended wear tapes can vary in adhesion level across a product range.
