Adheso-Mount specialty thin tapes are ideal for mounting corrugated printing plates onto PVC or Polyester based carrier films of various thickness.
These tapes feature rubber or acrylic adhesive systems—usage depends on the level of bond required in the final application. Thin Plate Mount Tapes are available in a wide variety of thicknesses, widths and liner types.
Plates are typically flat mounted to these tapes. After lamination, the liner is removed and the plate is ready for attachment to the carrier film. Adheso thin tapes are also suitable for use in plate build-up or press-low spot correction. Critical use applications include compressible print sleeve plate mount, and offset blanket adhesive lamination. They feature multiple adhesion levels including Rubber or Acrylic systems coated on a hard film carrier. FlexStik hard tapes find application in harsh printing environments, where temperature or long-run durability are required. They are ideal for printing solid or fine-line graphics, and for extreme high-bond plate attachment. FlexStik tapes provide a secure bond between various plate types and thicknesses. Best suited for printing paper or film substrates type films or simple graphic reproduction.
