Professional double coated flexographic plate mounting tape with air release feature, 5 mil thickness, 36x36 dimensions, designed for clean removal and superior plate adhesion in printing operations.
3M™ Thin Flexographic Plate Mounting Tape E2105 is a premium double coated film tape specifically engineered for mounting flexographic print plates to cushioned or compressible sleeves. Constructed with a polyester film carrier and differential acrylate adhesives, this professional-grade tape delivers exceptional holding power while maintaining easy and clean plate removal. The innovative air release feature incorporates a crosshatched pattern that creates continuous micro-channels, allowing air to escape between the tape and plate to prevent bubbles and ensure perfect plate adhesion. This 5 mil thickness tape comes in a 36 inch width by 36 yard length roll, providing ample material for extensive printing operations.
The E2105 tape is engineered to prevent plate edge lifting during printing, a critical requirement in high-speed flexographic operations. The non-linered side is specifically designed for mounting to compressible sleeves, while the polycoated kraft paper primary liner (4 mil thickness) protects the adhesive during storage. With a 12-month shelf life and transparent appearance, this tape integrates seamlessly into any printing workflow. The differential adhesive system ensures strong initial tack while allowing clean removal from both the plate and sleeve surfaces, eliminating residue and downtime.
Trusted by paper mills and printing plants for decades, 3M delivers solutions that improve work quality and operational efficiency. This industrial-grade tape is formulated exclusively for trained occupational users in professional printing environments, meeting the rigorous demands of modern flexographic printing technology.
