Multi-Extrusion Gaskets

The new EMI Gemini™ product line combines a thin, electrically conductive filler elastomer gasket layer and an inner, nonconductive silicone-coated core gasket. The conductive portion, usually loaded with silver, aluminum, nickel, or copper, and the cost are reduced due to the substitution of the silicone core. The gasket can be extruded in various sizes and profiles and retains EMI protection performance with a lower deflection while sealing against environmental influences such as moisture and dust. The gasket is manufactured in parallel ­using a ram and/or screw-type extrusion equipment.
