Professional 3M flexographic plate mounting tape with 0.015 inch double-coated foam, air release technology, and differential acrylate adhesive for bubble-free mounting. 18 in x 36 yd roll with 24-month shelf life.
The 3M™ Cushion-Mount™ Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1715H is a professional-grade flexographic plate mounting solution designed for printing operations. This teal foam tape features a 0.015 inch (0.38 mm) double-coated construction with differential acrylate adhesive on both sides, specifically engineered for mounting photopolymer plates to flexographic printing cylinders and sleeves. The tape comes in a 18 inch width by 36 yard length per roll, offering superior performance for combination printing applications with medium firm density foam.
This mounting tape is engineered with an innovative air release feature that utilizes a unique crosshatched pattern in the release liner, creating micro-channels that allow entrapped air to escape during application. This results in virtually bubble-free mounting, ensuring cleaner print quality and higher productivity. The plate-side adhesive is specifically designed to resist edge lifting during high-speed printing operations, while the sleeve-side adhesive allows for easy application and clean removal without adhesive residue.
The E1715H is ideal for printing combinations of solids and process work with halftone dots, making it versatile for various flexographic printing needs. With a 24-month shelf life and 2-year warranty from the date of manufacture, this industrial-grade tape delivers consistent performance across multiple print runs. The medium firm density foam, indicated by the teal color, provides the optimal balance between cushioning and plate stability for demanding printing environments.
