Electro-Con Oriented Wire
Electro-Con oriented wire provides EMI protection and seals against moisture or rain on cast or machined surfaces. The product is available in sponge or solid silicone with monel or aluminum wire and can be die cut into complex shapes. The monel wire bonded into the silicone provides multiple spring effect with each contact point resulting in low compression set. This consistent point-to-point contact provides high shielding effectiveness over the life of the gasket.

Typical Applications for Shielding Gaskets |
To provide both EMI shielding and an environmental seal on cast or machined surfaces. Vulcanized frame configurations can be used with pre-cast housings, vent panels, and computer terminal window frames. Die-cut wall widths as low as 0.090 (2,27) wide. Some examples include circular military connectors and sub D-connectors |
