comprises a tackifying resin part (a2) with at least one kind of a tackifying resin, where tackifying resin part (a2) comprises at least 90 wt % of hydrocarbon resins which are substantially compatible with polydiene blocks in the at least one kind of a polyvinylaromatic-polydiene block copolymer and substantially incompatible with polyvinylaromatic blocks in the at least one kind of a polyvinylaromatic-polydiene block copolymer, and a fraction of tackifying resin part (a2), based on the overall pressure-sensitive adhesive A is at least 40 wt % and at most 60 wt %, and
optionally comprises a plasticizing resin part (a3), where a fraction of plasticizing resin part (a3), based on the overall pressure-sensitive adhesive A, is 0 wt % to at most 5 wt %, and
optionally comprises further additives (a4),
where a fraction of microballoons, based on the overall pressure-sensitive adhesive A, is at least 0.5 wt % and at most 2.5 wt %,
where a thickness of adhesive layer A is at least 20 μm and at most 75 μm,

and wherein carrier B
comprises an elastomer part (b1) based on at least one kind of a polyvinylaromatic-polydiene block copolymer, where elastomer part (b1) comprises at least 90 wt % of the at least one kind of the polyvinylaromatic-polydiene block copolymer having a polyvinylaromatic content of at least 20 wt % and at most 45 wt %,
a fraction, within elastomer part (b1), of at least one triblock copolymer (linear or radial) or multiblock copolymer (linear or radial) is at least 80 wt %,
a peak molar mass by GPC of the at least one triblock copolymer (linear or radial) or multiblock copolymer (linear or radial) is at least 85 000 g/mol, a fraction of diblock copolymer(s) is below 20 wt %, and
a fraction of elastomer part (b1), based on an overall formulation of carrier B, is at least 40 wt % and at most 60 wt %, and

comprises a tackifying resin part (b2) with at least one kind of a tackifying resin, where tackifying resin part (b2) comprises at least 90 wt % of hydrocarbon resins which are substantially compatible with polydiene blocks in the at least one kind of a polyvinylaromatic-polydiene block copolymer, and substantially incompatible with polyvinylaromatic blocks in the at least one kind of a polyvinylaromatic-polydiene block copolymer and a fraction of tackifying resin part (b2), based on the overall formulation of carrier B, is at least 40 wt % and at most 60 wt %, and
optionally comprises a plasticizing resin part (b3),
where a fraction of plasticizing resin fraction (b3), based on the overall formulation of carrier B, is 0 wt % to at most 5 wt %, and optionally further additives (b4),
where a thickness of carrier layer B is at least 70 μm and at most 150 μm,
