The present invention provides an adhesive cloth tape for bundling the component wires of a wiring harness for use, for example, on an automobile. Conventional adhesive polyvinyl chloride tapes and adhesive acetate cloth tapes have problems that wiring harnesses bundled by these adhesive tapes generate fluttering and rustling noise while the automobile is running, and conventional adhesive cotton cloth tapes reduce the efficiency of bundling work because these tapes have high tear strength, though their noise preventing performance is excellent. The present invention provides an adhesive cloth tape solving the foregoing problems in the conventional adhesive cloth tapes, having a tensile strength of 8 kgf/19 mm or higher with respect to the direction of its length, and comprising: a woven base cloth of 0.2 mm or above in thickness, consisting of yarns, as warp yarns, having a strength in the range of 80 to 200 g, and spun yarns or texturized filament yarns, as weft yarns, having a strength not lower than that of the warp yarns.
