Description: Chomerics’ SOFT-SHIELD 4000 Series materials are low-cost, low closure force EMI gaskets that provide effective shielding and grounding of commercial electronic devices, indoor enclosures and industrial equipment. Their availability in thin cross sections makes them an ideal choice for access panel, back plane or I/O connector panel shielding. Rectangular in cross section, the 4000 Series materials are constructed of a closed cell urethane foam that is machine wrapped with a fabric-reinforced aluminum foil. This combination provides the shielding performance of foil and the conformability and toughness of fabric. Each material includes conductive, pressure-sensitive adhesive on one side, which provides a means of gasket attachment without compromising shielding performance. The fabric-reinforced foil covering has no loose conductive fibers or sharp edges. Low compression set, low surface resistivities, and durability make 4000 Series gasketing an excellent EMI shielding solution.Information provided by Chomerics |
