3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1315H with easy mount adhesive is designed for mounting flexographic print plates to cylinders or sleeves. This yellow foam mounting tape provides high quality medium soft 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 medium soft density foam that is ideal for printing combinations of solids and process with halftone dots
- Yellow foam color indicates the medium soft 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 E1315H will have no air bubbles under the plate due to the air release feature designed into the tape

-
What type of printing presses is this tape compatible with?
This plate mounting tape is suitable for use on a wide range of printing presses, including flexographic and letterpress machines.
-
Can the tape be easily applied and removed from printing plates?
Yes, the E1315H tape features easy application and clean removal properties, making it convenient for plate mounting processes.
-
Is the yellow color of the tape important for any specific reason?
The yellow color serves as a visual aid during plate mounting to ensure accurate positioning and alignment. It does not affect performance but enhances visibility during application.
3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1315H is a yellow foam tape that provides high-quality combination print. This medium soft tape is specifically designed for combination print applications. It features an air release feature that allows for bubble-free mounting, ensuring a smooth and clean plate removal process.
Recommended Applications- Mounting photopolymer plates to flexographic printing cylinders and sleeves
- 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 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 it can 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.
Easy Mounting with Reduced Air Entrapment
3M air release liners feature 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, as air bubbles disappear from between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder. The smoother surfaces created by this process enable faster setup, cleaner print quality, and higher productivity. Additionally, the adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting.
