3M Cushion-Mount Plus Plate Mounting Tape E1020H with easy mount adhesive is designed for mounting flexographic print plates to cylinders or sleeves. This white foam mounting tape provides high quality standard combination print.
- 0.020 inch (0.51 mm) double coated foam tape has the air release feature with a plate side adhesive technology designed to resist edge lifting on flexographic print plates
- Has a standard medium density foam that is ideal for printing combinations of solids and process with halftone dots. The white foam color indicates the standard, medium density foam
- Securely bonds the flexographic photopolymer plate to the print sleeve or steel cylinder to prevent plate edge lifting during printing
- Has higher plate side adhesion for challenging print conditions that use thick plates or small print sleeves
- Print plates mounted on E1020H will have no air bubbles under the plate due to the air release feature designed into the tape
- Grooves in the adhesive are created by a cross-hatch pattern from the release liner

Recommended Applications- Mounting photopolymer plates to flexographic printing cylinders and sleeves
- Used in combination, process, and solid printing processes
- Designed for wide-web presses to print film or paper for the flexible packaging industry
3M flexographic plate mounting tapes are engineered to provide very tight caliper tolerance, enabling printers to use tape from different manufacturing lots while maintaining tight print registration. The compressible foam construction of the tape ensures its durability even during long and high-speed print runs.
This cushion tape is specifically manufactured for 20 mil applications and is constructed with engineered acrylic adhesives. The adhesive on the linered (plate) side of the tape is designed for mounting photopolymer plates, while the adhesive on the non-linered (sleeve/cylinder) side is designed for mounting to flexographic printing cylinders or sleeves. This ensures easy application during mounting and clean removal when demounting.
Easy Application with Reduced Air Entrapment
3M air release liners feature a unique crosshatched pattern, unlike other mounting tapes that use pebbled or flat release liners. The embossed crosshatched pattern creates micro-channels in the easy mount adhesive, allowing entrapped air to escape. As a result, air bubbles disappear from between the tape and plate, as well as between the tape and sleeve or cylinder, resulting in virtually bubble-free mounting. This setup process is faster and provides smoother surfaces for cleaner print quality and higher productivity. Additionally, the adhesive maintains tight contact with reduced edge lifting.
