Nickel-Copper Fabric Won’t Flake Off

The C¹² nickel-copper fabric for EMI shielding eliminates the flaking of other nickel-copper woven fabrics. The material, which represents a mixture of extremely durable polymers, survives harsh environments such as high salt concentrations in the air. The firm’s plating process provides superior adhesion of the metals to the nylon. The C¹² material consists of a layer of nickel on top of a layer of copper, both of which cover a nylon woven fabric. The gasket provides increased durability and galvanic compatibility with a range of materials, including yellow chromate and clear chromate, aluminum, steel and zinc. Shielding effectiveness is over 105 dB from 20 MHz to 2000 MHz.
