Enclosure Shielding with Bonded EMI Frame Gaskets
SSP makes bonded EMI frame gaskets for enclosure shielding. Learn when to use these EMI gaskets. Bonded EMI frame gaskets are made from electrically-conductive silicone sheets that are cut into strips and then bonded together at their edges with an electrically-conductive adhesive. The entire EMI gasket resembles a picture frame with four flat sides and […]
CHO-SEAL EMI Gasket Alternatives
Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) makes EMI gasket materials that you can use as alternatives to CHO-SEAL® materials from Parker Hannifin. The table shows when SPP products are offsets.
Medical Grade Silicones are Platinum-Cured
SSP’s medical grade silicones are platinum cured for purity and comply with USP Class VI, FDA, and RoHS requirements. Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) supplies medical grade platinum-cured silicones in durometers ranging from 10 to 80 (Shore A). These ultra-clean, high-purity silicones are part of the SSP2390 series and meet stringent FDA CFR 177.2600, USP Class VI*, and […]
FDA Silicone for Food Contact and Medical Applications
SSP makes FDA silicone materials for food contact and medical applications. Our SSP2390 series elastomers also meet USP Class VI and RoHS requirements. They are platinum-cured for low levels of extractables. What is FDA Silicone? FDA silicone refers to a type of silicone that meets the safety and quality standards set by the U.S. Food […]
EMC Gaskets for EMI Shielding and Electromagnetic Compatibility
SSP makes EMC gaskets for EMI shielding and electromagnetic compatibility. Learn how an EMC gasket is made and used. Electronic devices are becoming smaller, faster, and more interconnected. As a result, protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) is becoming increasingly important. One of the most common and effective solutions for preventing EMI problems is by using […]
EMI Connector Gaskets and MIL-DTL-83528 Part Numbers
EMI connector gaskets provide environmental sealing and shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) in electrical and electronic connectors. They are cut or molded from electrically-conductive elastomers and designed to fill small gaps between uneven connector surfaces. EMI silicones for connector gaskets are soft enough to support compression and can provide proven levels of EMI shielding while […]
Conductive Gaskets and EMI Shielding
Conductive gaskets can provide electrical and/or thermal conductivity. Electrical conductivity is a measure of the amount of electrical current that a gasket material can carry. The unit of measure is Siemens per meter (S/m). Thermal conductivityis a measure of the amount of thermal energy (i.e., heat) that a gasket material can carry. The unit of […]
Chomerics EMI Gasket Alternatives from SSP
Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) makes EMI gasket materials that you can use as alternatives to CHO-SEAL® materials from Parker Hannifin. The table shows when SPP products are offsets.
UAV EMI Shielding for Drones
EMI shielding for drones and UAVs protects sensitive circuits against electromagnetic interference. Typically, these circuits are part of printed circuit boards (PCBs) that are housed within box-like enclosures.
Chomerics 6502 Alternative Resists Galvanic Corrosion
Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) supplies a nickel-aluminum silicone that provides EMI shielding, resists galvanic corrosion, and offers an offset to Chomerics 6502.
