Premium 3M Cushion-Mount Plus double-coated yellow foam tape for flexographic plate mounting with air release technology, easy removal, and bubble-free application. 27 in x 36 yd, 20 mil thickness.
The 3M™ Cushion-Mount™ Plus Plate Mounting Tape L1320 is a premium double-coated medium soft density yellow foam tape specifically engineered for flexographic printing applications. This 0.020 inch (0.51 mm) thick tape features differential acrylate adhesive technology designed to securely bond flexographic photopolymer plates to print sleeves or steel cylinders while preventing plate edge lifting during high-speed printing operations. The tape is ideal for printing combinations of solids and process with halftone dots, offering exceptional performance in demanding industrial printing environments.
Designed with innovative air release technology and specialized plate-side adhesive, this flexographic plate mounting tape allows air to escape from between the tape and cylinder/sleeve and between tape and plate, resulting in virtually bubble-free mounting. The unique L-Series crosshatched liner imprints microchannels into the adhesive that facilitate air flow, enabling faster setup times and smoother surfaces for cleaner print quality. The yellow foam color indicates the medium soft density backing material, which provides the optimal balance of compressibility and durability for long and high-speed print runs.
The tape features specially formulated engineered acrylic adhesives that limit edge lift for secure runs even on small repeats. The plate-side adhesive is specifically designed for easy and clean removal from ink-contaminated print plates without adhesive residue, reducing worker fatigue and preventing plate damage. With a shelf life of 24 months and polyethylene foam backing with polycoated polyester liner, this tape provides reliable performance across paper, print, and flexible packaging industries. Each roll measures 27 inches wide by 36 yards long and comes as 1 roll per case.
