An adhesive binding tape (5) for book binding consisting of a backing portion (6) with temperature activated adhesive (9) on one side, the exterior of the backing having alternating thick and thin sections (52 & 53) extending along an axis generally transverse to the longitudinal axis of the tape and forming alternating rows of peaks and valleys (55 & 56) of generally rectangular or triangular cross section. When the binding tape is pressed to the spine of the book relatively high localized pressure points are developed which enhance the flow of adhesive and promote its penetration into the spine of the book, thus improving the binding without the need to apply high pressure over the entire spine. |
