Foam Plate Mounting Tape For Combination Printing - Tesa 52015

Tesa 52015 Softprint Steel Master is a double-coated foam tape, designed specifically for mounting photopolymer plates with a thickness of 1.70mm (0.067") or 2.54mm (0.100") in flexographic label printing.

The medium-hard foam makes this the ideal solution for printing combinations and solids.

Foam properties

• Highly compressible foam, with superior recovery for excellent print quality
• Long lasting recovery characteristics for extended and high speed print runs
• Low thickness tolerances for quick print preparation and reduced waste

Adhesive properties

• 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 increase in bond allowing for easy repositioning and especially for easy demounting of plate and tape
• Very cohesive adhesive structure for demounting without adhesive residues

Additional properties

• The structured PP-liner prevents the formation of air pockets when plate mounting
• Blue colour marking indicates medium foam
