OMAM222 Pinc Zinc Oxide Dressing Fixation Tape, 2" x 5 yd

Medline's OMAM222 Zinc Oxide Dressing Tape is a waterproof, latex-free adhesive tape built for securing dressings, ostomy pouches, and compression wraps in place through daily activity and bathing. Each roll measures 2" wide by 5 yards (180") long — the wider width covers more surface area per pass, making it a good fit for larger dressing sites, broader ostomy pouch flanges, or compression applications where a 1" roll would mean extra wrapping.

Like all zinc oxide tapes, this one is prized for its strong initial tack and consistent hold that doesn't loosen with moisture or sweat, giving it a reliable wear time of up to 7 days. It's a common choice for ostomy patients securing pouch edges, wound care nurses reinforcing larger bandages, and athletic trainers taping joints or muscle groups that need broader coverage.

The tape is unperforated, so it tears cleanly to any length for a custom fit, and it's fully waterproof for showering or activity without lifting. It's also latex-free, making it safe for patients with latex sensitivities.
