Patent ID: 7022631

Claim:
A sealing tape for sealing connecting joints between a window frame and a window embrasure in a building, the sealing tape being for adhering to the window frame and the window embrasure, the tape comprising: an elastically moldable membrane base material for use on an inside of the building, the membrane base material comprising a foil material that forms a diffusion barrier and which has a first and a second surface; and nonwoven layers of card web covering the first and second surfaces of the membrane base material and which are elastically expandable in a lateral direction of the sealing tape for absorbing movements between the window frame and the window embrasure and which are substantially non-expandable in a longitudinal direction of the sealing tape so as to provide a sufficiently high yield strength of the sealing tape during use, wherein the nonwoven layers are adapted so that stucco or plaster adheres thereto.
