3M "E" Series and "EH" Series Cushion Mount Plus
"E" & "EH Series Cushion Mount Plus
For halftone work where dot gain is a concern, a softer tape optimizes reproduction. When solids and dots share the place, a combination tape can properly balance the result.
When your customer requires solid ink and crisp lines, you'll want a firm, high density mounting tape.
From our wide 3M selection, you can find the adhesives, foams, and thicknesses for the print quality that customers demand and expect. You'll also find choices to meet your handling requirements for:
*Mounting ease and positioning accuracy
*Easy, clean removal from plate and cylinder
E-Series Tape with Easy Mount Adhesive
On easy with reduced air entrapment
Unlike flat or pebbled liners, E-Series liners are crosshatched. This imprints unique micro-channels into the adhesive that allow air to flow throughout the adhesive.
Air bubbles disappear from between the tape and plate, and between the tape and cylinder or sleeve for virtually bubble-free mounting.
Setup is faster with smoother surfaces for cleaner print quality and higher productivity.
Stays on with reduced edge-lifting
Exclusive 3M plate-side adhesive maintains tight contact. Saves the prep time, downtime, and labor of sealing plate edges.
Peels off easily to reduce plate damage
Peels off so easily you can virtually eliminate plate back treatment. You're less likely to damage plates, so you save time, labor, and money.
Bubble-free print quality
*Prevents blemishes in screen and process printing
*Help assure proper registration
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"
3ME1115(H)/3ME1120(H)
Tan
Low density maximizes dot reproduction for high quality work process work and screen and vignette printing.
Most sizes available on E1115(H) 15 mil x 25 yards. Please call for pricing and availability
E1120(H) 20 mil x 25 yards is available in 18", 36", 54"
Slitting available at no additional charge
3ME1215(H)/3ME1220(H)
Orange
Low density maximizes dot reproduction for high speed process and screen printing. The foam density results in very low dot gain while reducing plate bounce.

Pink
Soft combination printing tapes with foam carrier
Improved tone reproduction at high speed when process and halftone images predominate.

3ME1315(H)/3ME1320(H)
Yellow
Medium soft combination printing tapes with foam carrier
Specifically designed for higher press speeds. The foam density is between the 10 Series and the 19 Series. It is more resilient than the 10 Series, these tapes bounce less on faster presses, resulting in cleaner fine-type reverses and richer half-tones

White
Medium combination printing tape with foam carrier
When solid and halftone areas are equally important.
Effectively prints most types of flexographic printing.
