Conductive foams
6800 - Amucor shield
• Cost-effective RF seal available in many different sizes/profiles
• Very effective in combination with steel or aluminum
• All seals also available with self-adhesive backing
• Consisting of AMUCOR-alloyed foil over a neoprene or PVC core
• Mechanically stable and abrasion-resistant
7000 - Standard shield
Standard Shield 7000 is an economical HF gasket which can be supplied in a wide range of dimensions. It is very effective in combination with stainless steel, copper and chromated constructions.
All gaskets can be provided with a (conductive) self-adhesive strip.
Standard Shield 7000 consists of a neoprene or PVC foam core covered with textile. This guarantees excellent shielding performance and very great strength.
For special applications, different foam cores and conductive foils and fabrics are available.
7300 - EMC/IP gaskets
• Cost-effective self-adhesive combination seal also effective against environmental influences
• The seal consists of one or two neoprene cores and a partial covering of textile or Amucor
• Corners and closed frames are easy to create without compromising water protection (up to IP65)
7800 - Ultra soft twin shield
• Combined self-adhesive RF and up to IP65 resistant seal with very low compression force
• The Series 7400 is complemented with an environmental seal of closed cell rubber foam
• Full water resistance is achieved at 30% compression
• Various cores available: PVC, neoprene, EPDM, UL 94V-0
7900 - Conductive O-Profile
• Endless O-ring seals available as solid material, hollow core, or rubber foam cells
• From neoprene, silicone, EPDM, silicone rubber filled with silvered particles or nickel graphite or graphite filled silicone
• These can be covered with AMUCOR foil, metallized textile, or conductive rubber
• For optimal shielding, a compression of 10-50% is recommended
• Very easy to install with high flexibility
8000 - Endless gasket (EMC/IP)
• Custom combination seal based on 6800 or 7400 with water protection
• Waterproofing achieved at 30% compression
• Low compression force
• Also available in UL 94V-0 version or chemically resistant EPDM version
• For temperatures up to 220°C, a silicone core is suitable
• Other materials available depending on the application
• Also available with self-adhesive backing
8100 - Frame gasket
• Custom-made seals with reinforced corners for optimal shielding with easy adhesive mounting
• The standard base material is AMUCOR-SHIELD 6800 or the combination seal 7300
• These seals can be equipped with an overcompression protection
• Chemically resistant, UL 94V-0, or high-temperature versions available upon request
8700 - V-shape EMI shielding gaskets
• The 8700 series V-shape gaskets are characterised by a very large compression range and a low closure force
• They come with a self-adhesive strip for easy mounting
• The most popular version is with conductive Nickel over Copper Textile (T). The version with high conductive Amucor foil (A) is special designed for a combination with aluminum and zinc plated steel
• To prevent loss of material and easy shipping we can cut them in exact lengths. Maximum 2.5 meter
• Also available with a resilient foam rubber insert (i) for more compression just at the moment of closing
• The 8700 series is a flame retardant version, which can be supplied in a UL94V-0 compliant version
8800 - Customized EMC gaskets
A new CNC extrusion system has been developed to manufacture EMI shielding gaskets in a wide range of shapes and dimensions.
With this system there are no tooling costs, so it is also interesting for smaller quantities or special constructions.
The metal-cladded flame retardant gasket can be manufactured in several rigidities and is very compatible with aluminium, zinc-plated steel, Aluzinc, stainless steel, copper, etc.
Enclosures can be constructed more cost-effectively and compactly and the (electrically conductive) self-adhesive strips will reduce production time.
The material is non-toxic and is an excellent replacement for the environmentally polluting beryllium gaskets.
Available in dimensions from 1.7 - 30 mm, with or without separate water seal. The gaskets can be supplied in lengths according to customer specifications.
Standard shapes are available for 19" racks, watertight enclosures and PCB shielding.
Conductive velcro fasteners
The benefits of the familiar hook-and-loop fastener are well-known and also utilized in industrial environments: cost-effective, robust, flexible, and easy to handle. With a durable electrically conductive coating, it provides a good option for temporarily sealing openings against EMC and reopening them.
This is used, for example, in EMC tents, which are gaining increasing popularity for pre-compliance testing. However, conductive hook-and-loop fasteners can also be a practical solution in other applications such as interior construction, plant engineering, or for large enclosures.
Infratron offers hook-and-loop tapes made from polyamide with a silver coating. Common roll widths are 16 mm, 25 mm, and 50 mm. The tapes can be sewn, stapled, or glued to the substrate. The height in the closed state is approximately 3.2 mm.
Felt materials
• Nonwoven textiles made from PE or PA with a non-electroplated coating of Ni, Cu, NiCu, or tinned Cu
• Thicknesses from 0.5 mm to 3 mm
• Low compression
• Cost-effective
• For seals, linings, etc.
