3M Medical Tape 9926T, Tan Tricot Fabric, Single Sided
A single sided tan tricot fabric medical tape, flexible and breathable with slight stretch, coated in acrylic adhesive for device manufacturing.
Medical Tape 9926T is a single sided knit polyester tricot fabric tape used by manufacturers in the construction of health care medical devices. The description notes it consists of a flexible, breathable backing with slight stretch for high comfort, coated with a pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive on one side, and that the backing itself is non absorbent.
Its knit tricot construction gives the material a soft, fabric like feel with a degree of stretch that plain film or nonwoven backings do not offer, which can suit wearable device components that need to move comfortably with the body over an extended wear period. The tan colouring provides a visual option distinct from white or transparent tapes elsewhere in the range, which manufacturers may choose for component identification or a more skin like appearance in a finished device.
This tape is intended for use by medical device manufacturers and converters during production rather than as a stand alone clinical dressing, and distributors supplying manufacturers keep this catalog number available for ongoing wearable device production.
