tesa® Softprint 52014 Steel Master

Plate mounting tape for photopolymer plates in flexographic printing.

  • 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
  • Green color marking indicates the hard foam

Product description

tesa® Softprint 52014 STM is a double-coated foam tape, designed specifically for mounting photopolymer plates with a thickness of 1.14mm (0.045″) or 1.70 mm (0.067″) in flexographic label printing. The hard foam makes this the ideal solution for printing solids.
