- 3M sticky back tapes are designed for narrow web presses to print tags and labels
3M flexographic plate mounting tapes are highly 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 can withstand long and high-speed print runs.
This cushion tape is specifically manufactured for 15 mil applications. It 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 provides easy application during mounting and clean removal when demounting.
Easy Application with Reduced Air Entrapment
3M air release liners have a crosshatched pattern, unlike other mounting tapes that use a pebbled or flat release liner. The embossed crosshatched pattern imprints unique microchannels into the easy mount adhesive, allowing entrapped air to escape. This results in air bubbles disappearing from between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder, ensuring virtually bubble-free mounting. Setup is faster with smoother surfaces, leading to cleaner print quality and higher productivity. The adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting.
