Abstract:
Adhesive tapes, especially for lengthwise jacketing of elongate items such as cable harnesses in motor vehicles and methods for producing and using said adhesive tapes are disclosed. Each adhesive tape comprises a carrier having a width BT based on the cross direction and at least one layer of adhesive applied on a bottom side of the carrier, wherein the adhesive layer bearing a second carrier, which has a lower width BSchutz than the width BT of the first carrier. The first carrier with the adhesive layer protrudes two-sidedly relative to the side edges of the second carrier, where the first protrusion has a width of BStart and the second protrusion has a width of BHülle. The first carrier is a woven fabric having a basis weight of 50 to 200 g/m2 and the second carrier is a textile carrier having a basis weight of 300 to 1000 g/m2.
Abstract:
Method for jacketing elongate material such as more particularly leads or cable looms, where an adhesive tape comprising a textile carrier and a curable adhesive applied to at least one side of the carrier is passed in a helical line around the elongate material, or the elongate material is wrapped in the axial direction by the adhesive tape, the elongate material together with the adhesive tape wrapping is brought into the desired disposition, more particularly into the cable loom plane, the elongate material is held in this disposition, the curable adhesive is brought to cure by the supply of radiant energy such as heat.
