Known also as MIL-G-83528, this U.S. military detail specification defines general requirements for EMI gaskets and is organized into lettered sections. SSP makes MIL-DTL-83528 Type A, B, C, D, and K elastomers, all of which are part of the […]
Three EMI Shielding Elastomers

Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) makes a variety of EMI shielding elastomers and shares complete product information, including independent test results, on our website. SSP’s electrically conductive silicones and fluorosilicones are filled with silver-coated or nickel-graphite particles and supplied as sheets, rolls, extrusions, ready-to-mold compounds, and fabricated products. Here are three EMI shielding elastomers that are […]
EMI Gasket Costs for Military Projects

EMI gasket costs don’t have to rise because of the high price of silver. Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) is enabling defense contractors to reduce EMI gasket costs without compromising quality or performance. In addition to cost-effective nickel-graphite materials, SSP provides molded or bonded EMI frame gaskets that maximize yields and reduce waste. SSP also makes […]
Reduce EMI Gasket Costs Without Hurting Performance

Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) can help military contractors to reduce EMI gasket costs without sacrificing quality or hurting performance. As efforts to cut government spending grow, more military projects are looking for an alternative supply of EMI shielding materials in order to reduce program costs. If you’re part of the defense supply chain, are you […]
Gore Gasket Replacements for EMI Shielding

SSP makes offsets for discontinued GORE gasket materials for EMI shielding. Use SSP502-40V0 instead of GS2100 Use SSP502-60-V0 instead of GS5200 Discontinued Gore Gasket Materials W.L. Gore & Associates has discontinued production of GS2100 and GS5200, two well-known GORE gasket materials for EMI shielding, gasketing, and grounding. Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) makes proven alternatives to […]
Shielding Gaskets Explained

SSP makes shielding gaskets that provide shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio frequency interference (RFI) with environmental sealing. We make our EMI gaskets from the EMI silicones and fluorosilicones that we produce at our Ballston Spa, New York (USA) manufacturing facility. What are shielding gaskets? Shielding gaskets are used to block EMI and RFI […]
Conductive Elastomers Explained

SSP makes electrically conductive elastomers that provide EMI shielding. They use silicone or fluorosilicone as the base elastomer and are filled with metallic particles. Contact us. What are Conductive Elastomers? Conductive elastomers combine the flexibility and resilience of elastomers (rubber-like polymers) with the electrical conductivity of metals or conductive polymers. This hybrid property set makes […]
ASTM E595 Low Outgassing Silicones
Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) makes ASTM E595 low outgassing silicones and publishes the ASTM E595 test data that we receive from independent laboratories. All third-party test reports are available on SSP’s website so that you can view and download the results. Pacific Testing Laboratories of Valencia, California has tested numerous EMI/RFI silicones and Exova OCM has tested […]
