52018 tesa® Softprint STM
tesa® 52018 is an extra soft density foam plate mounting tape designed for photopolymer plates in flexographic printing. It is equipped with a high bonding on the open side and optimal bonding to plate. These characteristics help avoid plate movement and edge lifting while allowing an easy, residue free demounting. Its foam characteristics include highly compressible foam, long lasting recovery properties as well as low thickness tolerances. This plate mounting tape is suitable for plates thicknesses from 67-100 mils.
Product Features
- Highly compressible foam, with superior recovery behavior for excellent print quality
- Long lasting recovery characteristic for extended and high speed print runs
- Low thickness tolerances for quick print preparation and reduced waste
- High bonding on open side to steel cylinder or sleeve to avoid plate movement
- High bonding to plate to avoid edge lifting or plate movement
- Non increasing bonding power for easy repositioning and especially for easy demounting of plate and tape
- Very cohesive adhesive structure for demounting without adhesive residues
- The structured PP-liner prevents the formation of air pockets when plate mounting
