Adhesive fabric tape Tesa 60101-00001-00, 45 x 0.048 m, for sealing 3–5 mm gaps

Tesa adhesive fabric tape 60101-00001-00 is a narrow sealing tape measuring 45 x 0.048 m, engineered to close and protect gaps of 3–5 mm. The tape features a textile carrier that combines tear resistance with good conformability, allowing it to follow irregular edges and joints. Its pressure-sensitive adhesive ensures immediate adhesion to common building materials, making it suitable for repair, insulation and weatherproofing tasks around windows, doors and other joints where a flexible, durable seal is required.

Advantages

The fabric carrier offers high tensile strength and resistance to tearing while remaining flexible enough to conform to uneven surfaces. The pressure-sensitive adhesive provides quick initial tack and reliable long-term adhesion on wood, metal, plastics and painted surfaces. The tape’s narrow width and thin profile make it suitable for precise application in tight gaps between frames and panels. It is designed for indoor and sheltered outdoor use where a combination of mechanical stability and elasticity is needed.

Suitable for

• Sealing 3–5 mm gaps around window and door frames
• Repairing small cracks and seams in building interiors
• Edge sealing for insulation materials and trim
• Temporary weatherproofing of joints and overlaps

Key specifications

• Width: 45 mm
• Length: 0.048 m (48 cm)
• Suitable gap size: 3–5 mm
• Carrier: fabric (textile) for tear resistance and flexibility
• Adhesive type: pressure-sensitive adhesive for immediate tack
• Application temperature: suitable for typical building maintenance and repair temperatures (check surface compatibility prior to use)

How to use

Ensure surfaces are clean, dry and free from dust, grease or loose particles before application. Measure and cut the required length of tape, remove the release liner (if present) and press the tape firmly onto the surface, smoothing to eliminate air pockets and ensure full contact. For best results, apply firm pressure along the tape’s length and pay special attention to ends and corners. When used outdoors or in exposed locations, ensure the tape is applied in sheltered conditions and check adhesion periodically.

Usage recommendations

For durable results, prepare surfaces by wiping with a suitable cleaner and allow to dry completely. Avoid applying the tape to damp or frosty surfaces. For permanent sealing of exterior joints exposed to direct weathering, consider combining this fabric tape with complementary sealing materials or using it as a protective reinforcement over a primary sealant.
