V-shape gasket 8700

V-shape EMI/RFI shielding gaskets for applications between lids, hinges and locks, and between door and doorframe

V-shape EMI/RFI shielding gaskets for applications between lids, hinges and locks, and between door and doorframe.

The V-shape gaskets 8700 series are characterized by a very large compression range and low closure force. They come with a self-adhesive strip for easy mounting. The most common version is with conductive nickel over copper textile (Material code T).

The version with highly conductive Amucor foil (Material code A) is designed specifially to be combined with aluminium and zinc-plated steel. To prevent loss of material and for easy shipping we cut the material to exact lengths. The longest length available is 2.5 meters.

V-shape gaskets are also available with a resilient foam rubber insert for more compression just at the moment of closing.

The V-shape gasket 8700 series is flame retardant and can be supplied in a UL94V-0 compliant version. Excellent shielding can be achieved without any permanent closure force. This construction prevents bending of doors, so the enclosure can be less rigid. It is also suitable for hinges and locks.

Benefits

  • Easy to fit with self-adhesive
  • Allows for large tolerances
  • High EMI/RFI shielding performance
  • Very high deflection
  • Very low closure force
  • Lengths of 5 mm up to 2500 mm
  • Only scissors required for installation

Options (on request)

  • Cut into accurate lengths
  • Different conductive foils and fabrics
