The first application part is applied to one body to be sealed over and the second application part is applied to the other body to be sealed over. These application parts are joined to one another solely via a transition part, which is small compared to the application parts, so that a distant separation exists between the application parts, and the varying longitudinal expansion of the label when labeling the different circumferences is made sufficient. The application parts are preferably offset from one another in such a manner that an imaginary linear widening of the first application part of an infinite width only slightly overlaps the second application part or does not overlap it at all, the widening extending beyond the transition part in a transverse direction of the label. The application parts thus form, when applying them, a respective leading part and trailing part. At both the beginning as well as the end of the application process, only one of the bodies to be sealed over is labeled at a time, i.e., lateral surfaces of varying diameters are, to a large extent, provided with the corresponding label part in succession and not simultaneously.

A label for sealing over a transition between axially different cross-sections, featuring a base layer with a first application part and a second application part that is connected to the first application part by means of a transition part, as well as a self-adhesive coating that is provided at least sectionally on the underside of the first and the second application part of the base layer, wherein the surface area of the transition part is smaller than the surface area of each of the application parts.
A coaxial arrangement of two separable bodies with at least one of a cylindrical region, a prismatic region and a conical region, wherein the bodies have different cross-sections in the region of their transition, and wherein the transition is sealed over with a label featuring a base layer with a first application part and a second application part that is connected to the first application part by means of a transition part, as well as a self-adhesive coating that is provided at least sectionally on the underside of the first and the second application part of the base layer, wherein the surface area of the transition part is smaller than the surface area of each of the application parts, in such a way that the first application part of the label is fixed on one of the bodies and the second application part of the label is fixed on the other body.
A method for sealing over a coaxial arrangement of two separable bodies with at least one of a cylindrical region, a prismatic region and a conical region that have different cross-sections in the region of their transition, wherein a label is provided that has two application parts arranged offset relative to one another and connected by means of a transition part, and wherein the label is applied in the tangential direction such that one application part lies on one of the bodies and the other application part lies on the other body and the leading edge of one application part comes in contact with one body before the leading edge of the other application part comes in contact with the other body.
