Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The invention pertains to an adhesive tape, more particularly for wrapping elongate material such as cable harnesses in a motor vehicle, comprising a carrier having a top side and a bottom side, the carrier, based on the cross direction, having a width BT, there being provided, on at least one long edge on the bottom side of the carrier, a strip of adhesive which has a width BK of at least 3 mm and at most 30% of the width BT, characterized in that as well as the strip of adhesive on the bottom side of the carrier, there is at least one polymer strip which extends over a width BP of at least 60%, preferably 75%, more preferably 90%, very preferably 100%, of the residual width BRB—not coated with the strip of adhesive—of the carrier.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. Adhesive tape comprising a carrier having a top side and a bottom side, the carrier, based on the cross direction, having a width B T , there being provided, on at least one long edge on the bottom side of the carrier, a strip of adhesive which has a width B K of at least 3 mm and at most 30% of the width B T , wherein in addition to the strip of adhesive on the bottom side of the carrier, there is at least one polymer strip which extends over a width B P of at least 60% of a residual width B RB of the carrier, wherein said at least one polymer strip is not coated with the strip of adhesive, and wherein said at least one polymer strip has a thickness of 40 to 300 μm. 2. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein there is provided, on each of both long edges on the bottom side of the carrier, a strip of adhesive, said strips having a width B K of at least 3 mm and of at most 30% of the width B T , there being present, between the strips of adhesive on the bottom side of the carrier, at least one polymer strip which extends over a width B P of at least 60% of the residual width B RB of—not coated with the strip of adhesive—of the carrier. 3. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the strip or strips of adhesive each finish flush with the long edge or long edges of the carrier. 4. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the width B K of the strips of adhesive is at least 10 mm and/or at maximum at most 25% of the width B T . 5. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the width B K of the strips of adhesive is between 5 and 40 mm. 6. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the width of one strip of adhesive B K1 is smaller by a factor of 0.5 to 0.8 than the width of the other strip of adhesive B K2 . 7. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the strip or strips of adhesive have a thickness of 40 to 300 μm. 8. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness or the coat weight of one strip of adhesive is smaller by a factor of 0.5 to 0.8 than the thickness or the coat weight of the other strip of adhesive. 9. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the width B T of the carrier is between 20 and 200 mm. 10. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier has a basis weight of 30 to 250 g/m 2 . 11. Adhesive tape according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier used comprises a woven, nonwoven or knitted fabric. 12. A method for wrapping elongate material, said method comprising enveloping the elongate material in an axial direction by the adhesive tape according to claim 1 . 13. Elongate material wrapped with an adhesive tape according to claim 1 .
