The 3M™ Flexomount™ Plate Mounting Tape 447 is a premium, double-coated tape engineered for secure mounting of photopolymer and rubber printing plates to flexographic printing cylinders or sleeves. This specialized tape is designed with a unique adhesive formulation that ensures clean removal from both the printing plate and the print cylinder or sleeve, enhancing efficiency and reducing downtime in printing operations.
- Exceptional Adhesion: The soft rubber adhesive provides excellent adhesion to both rubber and photopolymer plates, ensuring plates stay securely in place during printing.
- Reduces Plate Edge Lifting: High adhesion properties help minimize the risk of plate edge lifting, making it ideal for long print runs.
- Uniform Coverage: The gray double-coated tape offers uniform coverage of solids, particularly beneficial when halftone dot reproduction is not critical.
- Clean Removal: The specially formulated adhesive allows for easy and clean removal from both the plate and the cylinder or sleeve, reducing the time and effort needed for plate changes.
Recommended Applications:
- Mounting photopolymer print plates to flexographic printing cylinders or sleeves
- Mounting rubber printing plates to flexographic printing cylinders or sleeves
Usage and Maintenance: For optimal performance, ensure that both the printing plates and the cylinders or sleeves are clean and dry before application. Follow standard mounting procedures to apply the tape evenly, avoiding air bubbles and wrinkles. After printing, remove the plates carefully to maintain the integrity of both the plates and the tape, facilitating easy reuse or disposal.
