Wire Mesh Elastomer Combinations
combination EMI/RFI shield
with an environmental and pressure seal. These strips are manufactured by
bonding mesh to an elastomer strip. The knitted mesh
can be fabricated from Monel, SnCuFe (tin-plated, copper-clad steel), phosphor
bronze or aluminum wire. The elastomer seal is available in silicone or
neoprene, sponge or solid.
APPLICATIONS
Recommended for applications which require shielding with an environmental seal. The mesh provides the shielding and the elastomer provides the seal. The applications include sealing of enclosure doors, access panels and vent panels.
AVAILABLE CONFIGURATIONS
The strips are available with an adhesive strip which allows easy application and positioning of the gasket. These are available with a silicone or neoprene, solid or sponge elastomer seal. For the solid elastomer seal, the mesh is 0.032” higher than the elastomer because the solid elastomer is not easily compressed compared to the wire mesh. For the sponge elastomer, the mesh is the same height as the sponge elastomer because they are equally compressible.
