3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1315 is a yellow foam tape that provides high-quality combination print. This tape is specifically designed for medium soft combination print applications.

- Designed for narrow web presses to print tags and labels
3M flexographic plate mounting tapes are engineered to provide a very tight caliper tolerance, allowing printers to use tape from different manufacturing lots while maintaining tight print registration. The compressible foam used in this tape can withstand long and high-speed print runs, ensuring durability and consistent performance.
This cushion tape is specifically manufactured for 15 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 allows for easy application during mounting and clean removal when demounting.
3M air release liners used in this tape have a crosshatched pattern, unlike other mounting tapes that use a pebbled or flat release liner. The embossed crosshatched pattern creates unique micro-channels in the easy mount adhesive, allowing entrapped air to escape. This results in virtually bubble-free mounting, with air bubbles disappearing between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder. The smoother surfaces created by this tape's adhesive pattern enable faster setup, cleaner print quality, and higher productivity. Additionally, the adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting, ensuring consistent and reliable performance.
For decades, 3M products have been trusted in printing plants to improve the quality of work and enhance efficiency. Our Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1315 is designed to keep presses running smoothly and customers coming back for high-quality prints.
