• Mounting ease and positioning accuracy

• Easy, clean removal from plate and cylinder

For example, tapes designated with an “E”are Easy Mount products that virtuallyeliminate air bubbles and edge lifting, yetremove easily without plate damage.

Pebbled Liner

3M EH-Series Tapes combines the air-release of 3M E-Series Tapes withhigher plate side adhesion to resist edgelifting on cylinder diameters as small as 2".

EH-Series Adhesive to hold theedge on small diameter cylinders

On easy with reduced air entrapment

Unlike flat or pebbled liners, E-Series linersare crosshatched on both sides. This imprintsunique microchannels into the adhesive thatallow air to flow throughout the adhesive.Bubbles release from between the tape andplate, and between the tape and cylinder orsleeve for virtually air-free mounting. Setupis shorter with smoother surfaces for cleanerprint quality and higher productivity.

Stays on with reduced edge-lifting

Exclusive 3M plate-side adhesive maintainstight 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 lesslikely to damage plates, so you can save time,labor, and money.

3M™ Non-Repulpable Splicing Tapes

Match tape handling and performance to the demands of the job

3M™ Adhesive Transfer TapesFor an overlap splice, simply press theadhesive side of the tape to one of thesurfaces to be spliced. Peel off the linerand you have a neat strip of adhesive forimmediate bonding. Select from a range of adhesive properties.

3M™ Double Coated Tapes Adhesive is on both sides of a carrier thatincreases dimensional stability of theadhesive for easy handling and applicationin making overlap splices.

3M™ Polyester TapesThese high strength single-coated tapesprovide thin caliper with some of the highest tensile strengths available foroverlap and butt splices.

3M™ Flatback Crepe TapesWith high strength paper backings, thesesingle-coated tapes provide high machinedirection tensile strength yet can be conveniently torn off the roll by hand for application ease.

For marking splice location, 3M™ Polyester Tape 850 is available in red, black, white, silver, and gold.Transparent is also available to blend with the web stock. Pressure sensitive acrylic adhesive grabs oncontact and holds butt splices securely. High tensile strength backing resists web handling stresses.

High tack 3M™ Adhesive Transfer Tape 465 grabsfast for flying and zero speed splices, resists up to250°F for 20 seconds.

Versatile 3M™ Performance Flatback Tape 2525provides high visibility for holding many materials, edge banding, and splicing.

3M™ Polyester Tape 8401 butt splices siliconerelease coated paper, resisting breakage whilemeeting thin caliper requirements.

For splicing paper or fabric, 3M™ Flatback Tapes provide high machine direction tensile strength andeasy cross tear. Rubber adhesive holds securely on materials ranging from kraft paper to nonwoven fabric.

With high tack and good shear strength, 3M™

Double Coated Tape 9420 splices plastic filmquickly and securely. Red carrier identifies thesplice for later removal.

To mark a roll with opaque black crepe tape to signal a knife cut during a splicing operation, you canselect either the 5.6 mil thick 3M™ Crepe Masking Tape 2510 or the 7.0 mil thick 3M™ PhotographicLight Blocking Tape 235. With conformable backing and rubber adhesive, both tapes hold securely atfull operating speeds.

Technology for knife cut signaling, core starting, and more

Building on the wide variety of adhesivesand backings, 3M has developed specializedtapes for splicing and other web process aids.

For example, black crepe paper tape conforms to the roll and signals the knifecut during the splicing process.

For reusing cores, double coated removable/repositionable tape features apermanent adhesive on one side of a carrierthat bonds permanently to the core.Adhesive strength on the other side of thecarrier holds paper and film with enoughstrength for reliable wind-up but easyrelease when unwinding.

Slick surface roller wrap tapesfor smoother web movement

To add a slick, anti-stick surface on webrollers for improved web movement, applyeither a 3M™ PTFE Tape or UHMW-PETape to the rollers.

PTFE Tapes perform at up to 400°F (204°C)and resist chemicals. For temperatures upto 225°F (107°C) and abrasion resistance,consider UHMW-PE (Ultra High MolecularWeight Polyethylene).

Traction wrap to enhance friction for web handling

3M™ Traction Tape 5401 bonds on contact to rollers providing non-stick traction for enhanced friction that improvesweb handling.

Silicone-coated fiberglass-reinforced backingprovides a durable, conformable strip thatruns long and lays flat. Silicone adhesivebonds reliably to clean, dry roller surfacesand removes cleanly when time forreplacement.

3M™ PTFE and UHMW-PE Tapes conform to rollers to provide low coefficients of friction forsmoother, more reliable web movement. As a cover on web former edges, the tapes minimizes frictionduring folding.
