Absolutely! The B1920 tape is compatible with both water-based and solvent-based inks commonly used in printing applications.
-
How long can I expect the adhesive bond to last when using this mounting tape?
The strong adhesive bond provided by the 3M™ Cushion-Mount™ Plus Plate Mounting Tape B1920 ensures a reliable hold for extended periods of time.
3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape B1920 features the air-release plate-side technology of the 3M Comply Adhesive System for easy application with virtually no air bubbles and more consistent print quality. This 0.020 inch (0.51 mm) double coated light medium density pink foam tape is ideal for high quality light medium combination print and securely bonds the flexographic photopolymer plate to the print sleeve or steel cylinder to prevent plate edge lifting during printing. This flexographic plate mounting tape has no reinforcement layer so it can expand and contract on thin-walled sleeves, which also helps decrease air bubbles.
Recommended Applications- Mounting photopolymer plates to flexographic printing cylinders and sleeves
- Price conscious applications such as short runs and frequent changeovers
- Used in combination, process and solid printing processes
- 3M sticky back tapes are designed for wide-web presses to print film or paper for flexible packaging industry
3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape B1920 is constructed with engineered acrylic adhesives for 20 mil applications. The adhesive on the linered (plate) side of the tape is designed for mounting photopolymer plates. The adhesive on the non-linered (sleeve/cylinder) side is designed for mounting to flexographic printing cylinders or sleeves.
Easy Application with Reduced Air Entrapment
Unlike flat or pebbled liners, B-Series liners are crosshatched. This imprints unique microchannels into the adhesive that allow air to flow throughout the adhesive. Air bubbles disappear from between the tape and plate for virtually bubble-free plate mounting. Setup is faster with smoother surfaces for cleaner print quality and higher productivity. The adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting.
Understanding Flexographic Plate Mounting Tapes
3M flexographic plate mounting tapes are highly engineered to provide very tight caliper tolerance to allow flexographic printers to use tape from different manufacturing lots and keep tight print registration. The compressible foam will withstand long and high-speed print runs.
