Fabric Over Foam Profiles
Fabric-over-foam profiles offer high conductivity and shielding attenuation and are ideal for applications requiring low pressure force. The fabric-over-foam profiles are UL 94V0 and HB flame retardant and offer high abrasion and shear resistance. Typical fabric-over-foam profile applications include shielding or grounding of computer and telecommunications equipment seams and apertures. Custom sizes and shapes can be designed to meet your application requirements.
