Bubble Free Flexographic Plate Mounting

3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1120 is a tan foam tape that provides high quality process print. It features an air release technology that ensures bubble-free mounting. This flexographic plate mounting tape is specifically designed to resist lifting on press, making plate removal easy and clean.

Recommended Applications
  • Mounting photopolymer plates to flexographic printing cylinders and sleeves
  • Used in process printing
  • Designed for wide-web presses to print film or paper for the flexible packaging industry

3M flexographic plate mounting tapes are engineered to have a very tight caliper tolerance, allowing printers to use tape from different manufacturing lots while maintaining tight print registration. The compressible foam can withstand long and high-speed print runs.

This cushion tape is specifically manufactured for 20 mil applications and is constructed with engineered acrylic adhesives. The adhesive on the linered (plate) side of the tape is designed for mounting photopolymer plates, while the adhesive on the non-linered (sleeve/cylinder) side is designed for mounting to flexographic printing cylinders or sleeves. This ensures easy application during mounting and clean removal when demounting.

Easy Application with Reduced Air Entrapment

3M air release liners have a unique crosshatched pattern, unlike other mounting tapes that use a pebbled or flat release liner. The embossed crosshatched pattern creates microchannels in the easy mount adhesive, allowing entrapped air to escape. This results in virtually bubble-free mounting, as air bubbles disappear between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder. The smoother surfaces provided by this technology enable faster setup, cleaner print quality, and higher productivity. Additionally, the adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting.

Keep the Presses Running and your Customers Coming Back

For decades, 3M products have been trusted in printing plants to improve the quality of work and enhance efficiency. With 3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1120, you can ensure high-quality process print, bubble-free mounting, and easy plate removal, ultimately satisfying your customers and keeping your presses running smoothly.
