tesa® 52918

Mounting of thin photopolymer plates on compressible sleeves


Product Features
  • While the sleeve side adhesive ensures a secure bond to the sleeve, the plate side adhesive is especially tailored for a strong bond to photopolymer plates, while at the same time allowing for easy repositioning and removal of the plate.
  • The specially developed liner allows for smooth and easy tape application.
  • Solvent and ink resistance of the tape ensure easy and efficient processes.
