The heat sealing film and a magnetic transfer strip contain an adhesive layer comprising thermoplastic, immiscible binder components. One component is spherical, amorphous and embedded in finely distributed form in a homogeneous layer of the other, highly crystalline components in such a way that the spherical component protrudes hemispherically from the layer. The spherical binder is a glassy solid up to at least 60.degree. C. and above 80.degree. C. is plastically deformable. The hemispheres protruding from the adhesive layer produce a uniform, fine roughness of the surface. Both heat sealing film and magnetic transfer strip are nonblocking up to at least 60.degree. C. and heat-sealable at temperatures greater than 80.degree. C. The adhesive layer imparts to a magnetic recording medium a uniform thickness of the adhesive joint and a permanent, temperature-resistant adhesive force.
