An explosion-proof tape is wound on an outer circumference of a panel portion of a cathode-ray tube and a metal band is shrink-fitted on the tape. The tape is composed of a support having at least a layer composed of propylene polymer with a propylene content of not less than 40 weight % or styrene polymer with a styrene content of not less than 50 weight % and an adhesive layer formed on one surface of the support in a manner so that a plurality of fibers with a softening point of not lower than 200° C. are buried in the adhesive layer in a lengthwise direction of the tape. An explosion-proof structure of a cathode-ray tube, wherein a metal band is shrink-fitted on an outer circumference of a panel portion of a cathode-ray tube, through a layer which is formed by winding such an explosion-proof tape as mentioned above, through its adhesive layer.
