The basic physical properties of kinesiology tape include elasticity, tension, stress, shear force, and adhesion.
Elasticity: The elastic recoil force inherent in the tape after being stretched (i.e., centripetal force).
Tension: The extensibility of the tape when subjected to external force (i.e., centrifugal force).
Stress: The resistive force generated within soft tissues when acted upon by the tape, or the perpendicular force exerted by the tape per unit area.
Shear force: The lateral force exerted by the tape per unit area, capable of horizontally influencing the direction of skin folds.
Adhesion: The force with which the tape's adhesive bonds to the skin.
Stretch capability: Contraction of 5–10% and elongation of 130–150%.
