Quick Tips

  • For halftone work where dot gain is a concern, a softer tape optimizes reproduction.
  • When solids and dots share the plate, a combination tape can properly balance the result.
  • When your requires solid ink and crisp lines, you’ll want a firm, high density mounting tape.
  • From the wide 3M selection, you can find the adhesives, foams, and thickness for the print quality that you demand and expect.

E-Series Tapes with Easy Mount Adhesive

Unlike flat or pebbled liners, E-Series liners are crosshatched. In other words, they imprint unique micro-channels into the adhesive that allows air to flow throughout. Air bubbles disappear from between the tape and plate. Also, they disappear between the tape and cylinder / sleeve for virtually bubble-free mounting. Therefore, setup is faster with smoother surfaces for cleaner print quality and higher productivity. In addition, exclusive 3M plate-side adhesive maintains tight contact. Peels off easily to reduce plate damage and you can virtually eliminate plate back treatment. In conclusion, you’re less likely to damage plates, so you save time, labor and money.

EH-Series Adhesive to hold the edge on small diameter cylinders

3M EH-Series Tapes combine the air-release of 3M E-Series Tapes with higher plate side adhesion to resist edge lifting on cylinder diameters as small as 2 inches.

L-Series Tapes with Less Removal Force

3M L-Series Tapes combine the air-release feature of 3M E-Series and H-Series Tapes. They are designed to provide easy and clean removal of printing plates across a wide range of printing applications with excellent resistance to plate lifting.
