Elastic adhesive bandage with straight-cut edges for secure sports taping
Physical Cut Elastic Adhesive Bandage (Cut EAB) is a durable elastic strapping tape supplied here in case quantities for clubs, schools, and teams that want a more secure alternative to traditional feather-edged EAB.
Cut EAB is made from a tightly woven elastic fabric with a straight-cut edge and full-width adhesive. Unlike traditional EAB, there is no uncoated margin at the edges, which helps the tape resist rubbing, lifting, and peeling during movement and contact.
Typical uses
Cut EAB is commonly used in sport for:
- Functional elastic taping to withstand frequent movement and contact
- Strapping of soft tissue injuries
- Protective joint taping (e.g. of wrists, knees or ankles)
- General sports strapping where a firmer, longer-lasting hold is preferred
Rugby use: Cut EAB is often used in rugby, including for general strapping and for forming lifting straps.

Choosing the right elastic tape
