Zusammenfassung:An adhesive tape is provided for overcoating splices in polymer coated metal tapes, which comprises a plastic film that serves as recoating material, a layer of adhesive applied to one face of this film and covered by a release sheet which is peeled-off when required to expose the adhesive tape which is then applied onto the area of the splice to overcoat the same. The adhesive is crosslinkable by application of heat and is crosslinked during a subsequent cable jacketing operation, thereby forming a strong bond between the non-coated metal tape in the splice area and the recoating plastic film.
