SSP502-65-COMPOSITE
SSP502-65-COMPOSITE is a series of nickel-graphite filled, shielding silicones reinforced with an inner layer of conductive fabric offered in various thicknesses.
Conductive fabric-reinforced shielding elastomer for maximum structural stability used in thin wall parts to prevent tearing.
Choose these materials in sheets or rolls and in four standard thicknesses. Custom products also available.
SSP’s reinforced EMI shielding silicones contain nickel-graphite particles and are reinforced with an inner layer of conductive fabric. They come in four different inch-based thicknesses: .020, .024, .032, .040, and .062. SSP offers two composite materials, both of which have physical properties that are superior to non-reinforced elastomers.
SSP502-65-COMPOSITE is a series of nickel-graphite filled, shielding silicones reinforced with an inner layer of conductive fabric offered in various thicknesses.
SSP502F60-COMPOSITE is a series of nickel-graphite filled, shielding fluorosilicones reinforced with an inner layer of conductive fabric offered in various thicknesses
SSP also offers these other types of EMII/RFI shielding materials. We also fabricate EMI gaskets and EMI O-rings from the elastomers we make.
Reinforced EMI materials are conductive elastomers that incorporate a supporting structure—such as fabric reinforcement, mesh, or internal carriers—to improve mechanical strength, dimensional stability, and tear resistance while maintaining EMI/RFI shielding performance.
Reinforced materials are ideal when gaskets must withstand repeated assembly, high compression forces, shear loads, or demanding environmental conditions. Reinforcement helps prevent stretching, tearing, and deformation during installation and long‑term use.
No. SSP’s reinforced EMI materials are engineered so the reinforcement layer does not interfere with conductivity or shielding effectiveness. They maintain stable electrical performance across a wide frequency range.
SSP offers multiple reinforcement options, including fabric‑reinforced silicone, mesh‑reinforced elastomers, and specialty carriers for improved dimensional stability. The best choice depends on mechanical requirements and installation conditions.
Yes. Reinforced versions are available in both silicone and fluorosilicone. Fluorosilicone options provide added resistance to fuels, oils, and solvents while maintaining mechanical strength and EMI performance.
Reinforced EMI elastomers are commonly used in aerospace and defense systems, ruggedized electronics, industrial enclosures, transportation equipment, and any application where gaskets must resist tearing, stretching, or mechanical stress.
Some reinforced materials can meet or exceed MIL‑DTL‑83528 performance requirements depending on the filler system and construction. SSP can help determine whether a reinforced option is appropriate for a specific MIL‑spec application.
Absolutely. SSP can tailor reinforcement type, durometer, filler system, thickness, and mechanical properties to meet specific electrical, environmental, and structural requirements.
