Using Nickel-Graphite Silicone for EMI Shielding Gaskets

When building electronic devices, one must be mindful of EMI and RFI leaking. Engineers and designers must be careful of the EMI their product produces as well as the EMI interference it experiences during everyday use. EMI and RFI interference can upset normal functions of your device or other electronics that are near your equipment. Using shields and gaskets is the best way to protect electronics from harmful RFI and EMI. Our accomplished team of engineers will work with you to build custom designed parts that will give full protection. Based on your customization needs, we will custom engineer EMI shielding and RFI gaskets.

EMI RFI Shielding

For instance, we can help you choose the best materials for your product. One of the most commonly used materials we use is nickel-graphite silicones. There are several reasons why this material is so widely used, and this includes:

  1. It is a cost-effective compound
  2. Contains same advantages of both silicone rubber and nickel
  3. Enhanced electrical properties/high conductivity
  4. Strong resistance to EMI
