EAB can be used with underwrap if you need added skin protection. This can help to reduce the pain of removal due to pulling hairs and skin and protect broken skin or wounds that need to be covered. As a result, applying anchor strips which the non stretch support straps attach to is its main function. Standard EAB tape does not tear easily. You need a pair of scissors. Easy tear elastic bandage EAB can stretch up to 170% of its resting length, and this means you can apply varying amounts of pressure. The adhesive on EAB means once you’ve decided on an appropriate level of pressure the bandage will compress at this rate until it’s taken off. FirstAid4Sport lightweight tearable EAB Tear Lite Tape is a 100% cotton stretch tape made from an open weave cotton with a strong adhesive. Made with dry natural latex and a hypoallergenic adhesive. The tape has a computerised unwind design which means it comes away from the roll with ease and unwinds to the core. This Elastic Adhesive Bandage Tape is tearable by hand and it gives a high level of compression, conforming and adhering to any part of the body. Using EAB around the head and ears helps to prevent ‘Cauliflower Ears’; a deformity to the ears caused by repeated blunt force. Forwards are particularly susceptible to this because of their head position when scrummaging.
