Plate Mounting Materials
Container-Mount®
Yellow mounting material that has become an industry standard. Consistent caliper, natural curve, easy film adherence, easy-to-draw-on surface and rugged flexibility. Also available in semi-transparant Trans-Mount™. Both types commonly used is .030” (.76mm) thickness x 62” (1,575mm) wide x approximately 89’ (27.1m) long rolls (sold by weight – length may vary).
ProFlex 2™
Cushion backed mylar supported mounting material provides quick rebound with high resistance to compression eliminating highs and lows. Commonly used with wide format thin plates for high end post printing on all corrugated substrates. Commonly used is .125” (3.175mm) thick with mylar backing in 60” (1524mm) wide and 75’ (22.9m) long rolls.
ProFlex 2™ is also available in an adhesive coated version without the support layer. Adhesive coated ProFlex 2™ is ideal for cushioned backing on carrier sheets or for temporary cylinder build-up.
Mounting Attachment System - PlateLoc™
Lead Edge Strip
The Lead Edge Strip is designed to give excellent registration and faster set-ups. (A flexible Lead Edge also available for extra-long mounts.) Our system is especially designed to have a positive fit in all Fast-Lock channels, and features 72" (1,829mm) and 102" (2,591mm) lengths.
Trail Edge Strip
The Trail Edge Strip is thicker, so straps and bands will not tear out, and is pre-punched to use either Container-Straps® or tension bands, and features 72" (1,829mm) and 102" (2,591mm) lengths.
Hanging Tab
The Hanging Tab is reinforced and stronger than the conventional grommets and has no metal - which reduces the risk of damage to anilox rolls.
Tension Bands
Black rubber bands with metal tips for Matthews Fast Lock or Cosco System. Available in lengths from 3” (76mm) up to 19” (483mm).
Container-Straps®
Metal-free tension Container-Straps™ stretch up to 2” (50mm) with constant tension regardless of length. Using several bands on a mount provides the same amount of tension because of the consistency of the stretch in the natural rubber bands. Available in 3” (76mm), 15” (381mm) and 40” (1,016mm) lengths. Strap puller is also available.
Lead & Trail Edge Mounting Strips
