Wire mesh over elastomer is a double layer of wire mesh knitted over a round or rectangular core of elastomer. The mesh layers provide EMI shielding and RFI shielding, while the elastomer acts as a dust and moisture seal. The standard mesh material is monel or tin-plated copper clad steel (SnCuFe).
APPLICATION: Wire mesh over elastomer combinations is used with doors, cabinets, and where surfaces may be uneven and low closure forces exist. For the many applications that require “cut-to-length” pieces that must be terminated with adhesive to stop the freying of the knitted mesh, Fralock has devised a “co-extrusion” method of manufacturing silicone knit-overs, which results in a “self-terminating” material supplied in continuous lengths for use in a production line. Our new “self-terminating” material can be specified by replacing Contact Fralock contract manufacturing directly for further information. Request a quote or Call us at 1-800-FRALOCK (372-5625) |
