Please note: All prices are for cases.

The Solventum Micropore™ Surgical Tape (1530S-2) is a professional-grade, white paper surgical tape specifically designed for high-efficiency clinical environments that prioritize infection control through single-use protocols. This "Single-Use" version provides the same high-breathability and hypoallergenic performance of the standard Micropore™ line but is supplied in shorter, 1.5-yard rolls to eliminate the risk of cross-contamination associated with multi-patient use of larger tape rolls. The pressure-sensitive acrylate adhesive is engineered to offer a reliable initial bond to dry skin while maintaining a gentle profile suitable for patients with compromised, at-risk, or sensitive skin.

Each roll is highly conformable to anatomical contours and allows for moisture vapor transmission, which is critical for preventing skin maceration during securement. The 2-inch width provides a broader surface area for securing larger dressings or providing secondary stabilization for medical tubing. Designed for convenience in fast-paced institutional settings, the tape is easily hand-tearable in both directions, allowing clinicians to apply securement rapidly without the need for additional cutting tools.

Key Features

• Single-Use Roll Format: Specifically sized at 1.5 yards to support facility-wide infection control mandates and reduce per-patient waste.
• Hypoallergenic Adhesive: Clinically tested to be non-sensitizing, making it safe for use on pediatric, geriatric, and at-risk patient populations.
• Superior Breathability: Porous paper construction allows for the exchange of air and moisture to preserve skin integrity during wear.
• Reliable Securement: Provides consistent adhesion for up to 72 hours on dry skin surfaces.
• Bi-Directional Tear: Allows for easy, clean tearing by hand even while wearing clinical gloves, improving workflow efficiency.

Ideal Clinical Applications

• Infection Control Protocols: Ideal for isolation rooms or high-acuity units where shared multi-use rolls are prohibited.
• General Purpose Securement: Used for blood draws, IV sites, and lightweight dressing fixation.
• Sensitive Skin Populations: Indicated for patients requiring frequent retaping where skin stripping is a primary concern.
• Secondary Tubing Anchor: Provides non-critical securement for lightweight medical lines and tubes.

Important Safety Information

Contraindications 

Do not use this tape as a primary securement method for critical life-support equipment, such as endotracheal tubes or arterial lines, where a high-strength, high-tack adhesive is clinically mandated to prevent accidental decannulation or displacement.

Do not apply this product directly to infected wound beds, deep cavity wounds, or areas of active hemorrhage where more specialized primary dressings are required.

Warnings and Precautions 

Do not apply Micropore™ tape under tension. Applying medical tape with "stretch" or pulling it tight across the skin can cause mechanical tension-induced skin injury, including localized blistering or epidermal stripping.

Ensure the application site is clean and dry prior to use. The presence of moisture, topical ointments, or oily residues will significantly degrade the performance of the pressure-sensitive acrylate adhesive.

For patients with extremely fragile or "tissue-paper" skin, use a medical adhesive remover during the removal process to further minimize the risk of epidermal stripping or skin tears.

Store the product in a cool, dry environment. Exposure to extreme heat or high humidity can degrade the chemical properties of the adhesive over time, leading to premature failure or residue transfer upon removal.
