The company's Recyclable Clean Copper products, a range of environmentally friendly copper-based shielding gaskets, offer beryllium-free EMI protection to a wide range of slotted applications. The gaskets meld strong stability, up to 100 MPa, with tensile strength to achieve high levels of thermal and electrical conductivity and elasticity, making them suitable for use in both grounding and shielding applications at a price that is comparable to traditional metal EMI shields. Additionally, shielding performance is similar to other copper alloys with levels beyond 100 dB. Materials are fully compliant to the RoHS directive 2002/95/EC and alleviate the environmental, safety, and segregation concerns associated with the traditional use and recycling of beryllium-based copper. The flameproof gaskets range in price from $0.15 to more than $4.80 each with an average sales price between $0.45 and $0.79. LAIRD TECHNOLOGIES, St. Louis, MO. (800) 843-4556.
