Mount-Smart Mounting Adhesives

About the Mount-Smart Mounting Adhesives

Mount-Smart is our intuitive lineup of adhesives and carrier combinations that are optimized for every possible mounting substrate and media type on the market.

Mounting adhesives, whether rubber, water, solvent, or acrylic based, are formulated for a specific function. Carriers are incorporated into the material for ease of use and to provide specific functionality to the mounting adhesive, such as opacity or clarity. Carriers vary in thickness and material types, such as vinyl or polyester. 

Release liners have different types of coatings applied to vary the “release characteristics,” which affect the ease of use and performance. Most are paper based and vary substantially in weight. Heavier weights generally provide better lay flat properties after decaling, making it more user friendly. Some release liners are film based and are often used in optically clear mounting applications (i.e. face mounting). All of these variations impact the cost of creating the mounting adhesive. 

Remember, the engineers at AGL understand the mechanical forces at work when mounting images to substrates for a specific application. So relax, you don't have to know all this or worry about sheer, tensile strength, peel or cleavage. Mount-Smart high-tac adhesives have been used by AGL' s industrial clients for years. If you're tired of being a testing facility, and want to get on with the business of making money, then use Mount-Smart.
