Abstract

The invention relates to the mounting of a glass sheet, particularly a windshield, on the recessed surface in the sheet metal of the frame of an automobile body, by means of an adhesive strip. According to the invention, the strip is applied simultaneously by co-extrusion with a flexible wire or filament of high tensile strength, said application being over the entire periphery of the glass sheet. If it is found necessary to remove the glass sheet, the wire serves as a cutting element to cut the strip in two.
