Product Description

3M™ Cushion-Mount™ Plus Plate Mounting Tapes with Easy Mount Adhesive

are designed for mounting flexographic print plates to cylinders or sleeves. This

family of foam mounting tapes provides excellent print quality for process,

combination, and solid printing. This product is designed to provide easy and

clean removal of printing plates across a wide range on printing applications with

excellent resistance to plate lifting.

Features

• Offers a complete range of foam densities providing excellent print quality from

process to combination to solid printing.

• Consistent caliper control allows the printer to use multiple foam densities on a

print job to optimize print quality.

• Use the 3M proprietary Easy Mount liner, creating micro-channels in both

adhesive surfaces. The crosshatched pattern creates a continuous and permanent

network of micro-channels in the adhesive, allowing air to escape from between

the tape and cylinder/sleeve and between the tape and plate.

• The adhesive on the linered side (plate side) of the tape is designed for mounting

of photopolymer plates, excellent holding power on-press and clean plate

removal when demounting.

• The adhesive on the non-linered side (cylinder side) of the tape is designed for

mounting to flexographic printing cylinders or sleeves, providing easy

application at mounting and clean removability when demounting.
