Hy-Tape & Securing Gastrostomy Tube

Securing devices in the presence of moisture requires a tape that is water proof, resists curling, and does not irritate sensitive skin. That is why Hy-Tape is the ideal tape for securing gastronomy tubes.

Hy-Tape is perfect for those with sensitive skin or when taping in a delicate area. It removes with minimum trauma to the skin thereby reducing the chance of skin tears. The zinc oxide adhesive is soothing to delicate skin and minimizes the chances of tape burns and adverse reactions.

Please be advised that the Hy-Tape is specifically designed for adhesion to skin, and its effectiveness may vary when applied to surfaces other than skin. Additionally, the technique used to apply the tape can impact its adhesion. For optimal performance, we recommend ensuring that hands are clean and free of lotions, creams, and other substances before applying the tape, as this will help maintain a strong and waterproof seal. Thank you for choosing Hy-Tape.
