EMI Gaskets

EMI gaskets are conductive materials used to provide electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding in electronic enclosures. They ensure electrical continuity between mating surfaces, reducing radiation leakage and improving EMC performance.

• Types: Conductive foam, metal mesh, silicone with conductive fillers, beryllium copper, fabric-over-foam
• Applications: Military, aerospace, medical devices, telecom, industrial electronics
• Materials: Nickel, copper, aluminum, silver-coated particles, conductive elastomers
• Selection Criteria: Frequency range, compression force, environmental sealing, corrosion resistance, IP rating

Proper installation and compression are critical for optimal shielding effectiveness.
