GlideFree Transfer Board Tape - Features and Benefits
• Makes sliding transfers easy: Unique, self-adhesive tape reduces friction to make sliding transfers easier.
• Protects sensitive skin: Low-friction surface allows your clothing and skin to easily glide across surface, preventing your skin from being pinched or rubbed uncomfortably against the transfer board.
• Works with any board: Self-adhesive backing easily adheres to any transfer board material, including wood, plastic, or composite.
• Water-resistant: Resists water, making it ideal for both wet and dry wheelchair transfers.
• Trim to fit: Each kit contains five 1″ x 34″ strips. Trim to desired length. Apply strips 1/2″ apart to create a natural "groove” to slide across during wet or dry transfers. Transfer board NOT included.
• Award winning product: Winner of the 2015 Minnesota Manufacturing Award by Minnesota Business Magazine
Applications:
• Anyone who uses a transfer board for transferring between a bed, wheelchair, shower, chair, car, toilet, couch, and any other surface
• Both wet and dry transfers
• Application on any transfer board material, including wood, plastic, and composite
Instructions:
GlideFree Tape is not meant to cover the entire surface of your transfer board and should be trimmed to fit. Space the GlideFree Tape approximately 1/2″ apart (as pictured) to create a natural “groove” to slide across during wet or dry transfers. This will help ensure you are able to slide safely across the board in the correct direction, lengthwise, while preventing unwanted sliding down the narrow side of the board.
Dimensions:
1" x 34" (2.54cm x 86cm).
