3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1015H with easy mount adhesive is designed for mounting flexographic print plates to cylinders or sleeves. This white foam mounting tape provides high quality standard combination print.
- 0.015 inch (0.38 mm) double coated foam tape has the air release feature with a plate side adhesive technology designed to resist edge lifting on flexographic print plates
- Has a standard medium density foam that is ideal for printing combinations of solids and process with halftone dots
- The white foam color indicates the standard, medium density foam
- Securely bonds the flexographic photopolymer plate to the print sleeve or steel cylinder to prevent plate edge lifting during printing
- Has higher plate side adhesion for challenging print conditions that use thick plates or small print sleeves
- Print plates mounted on E1015H will have no air bubbles under the plate due to the air release feature designed into the tape

- Used in combination, process, and solid printing processes
- 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 construction of the tape ensures its durability and ability to withstand long and high-speed print runs.
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 ensures easy application during mounting and clean removal when demounting.
3M air release liners feature a unique crosshatched pattern, unlike other mounting tapes that use pebbled or flat release liners. This pattern creates micro-channels in the easy mount adhesive, allowing entrapped air to escape. As a result, air bubbles disappear from between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder, ensuring virtually bubble-free mounting. This not only speeds up the setup process but also provides smoother surfaces for cleaner print quality and higher productivity. Additionally, the adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting.
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 E1015H is just one example of how 3M continues to innovate and provide solutions that keep presses running smoothly and customers coming back for exceptional print results.
