Plate Mounting Tapes – Cloth Base, Filmic Base, Foam Base

Plate Mounting Tapes are especially designed for flexographic plate mounting. It is based on a specialty acrylic adhesive on its open side (cylinder side), and a graphic grade acrylic adhesive on its closed side (clichés side). These are reinforced with a polyester film, PE Foam & Cloth Base with smooth siliconised embossed PP release liner.

Application Usage:

Particularly suitable for mounting soft to medium‐hard photopolymer clichés on to medium to large size diameter cylinders.

Designed for both half – tone and block printing, or a combination of both when used on the same plate.

Mounting of flexographic photopolymer and rubber clichés onto cylinder or sleeve.

Features:

Colour of the foam helps in a quick identification of the foam hardness.

Differential adhesion, with standard adhesion and tack on the plate side and a controlled adhesion on the cylinder side.

Embossed plastic liner reduces the risk of air entrapment, and allows bubble – free mounting of the clichés.

Special high performance PE foam allows even longer, faster print runs with consistently high print definition
