Woven & Expanded Wire in Elastomer
Description
A composite of metal wire mesh impregnated with an elastomer, creating a highly conductive and resilient gasketing material for EMI/RFI shielding and environmental sealing applications.
Designed for those specific applications where joint unevenness does not exceed 0.1mm and/or where space restrictions occur. A high level of EMI shielding performance is reliably achieved by virtue of the array of aluminium mesh contact points exposed at the surface. This material also has the advantage that the woven mesh layer acts as an internal compression limit allowing small cross-sectional area gaskets to be designed in without the requirement for additional mechanical compression stops. Environmental sealing is achieved by the Silicone, Fluorosilicone or Neoprene elastomer carrier.
