Medical Tape: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.79 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.05 at volume, on a typical 30-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For medical tape, the drivers are material, locking mechanism, serrated jaw, length, sterile packaging, capacity, mount style, print method — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published supplier quotes show a wide spread because medical tape pricing changes materially with substrate (paper, cloth, plastic), adhesive performance, roll size, and whether the order is stock or custom-printed. Realistic sourcing routes are US medical distributors for branded stock tape, and China-facing trade marketplaces/importers for custom or private-label runs; the lowest published unit prices typically appear at 5,000+ units and can be quoted as roll or piece pricing depending on pack configuration. The very low end reflects commodity/private-label listings rather than premium autoclavable or specialty surgical tape, so custom print, sterilization claims, and tighter specs usually push the band upward.
