V-shape gasket 8700
V-shape EMI / RFI shielding gasket for doors. Extremely low closure force
The V-shape gaskets 8700 series are characterised by a very large compression range and low closure force. They come with a self-adhesive strip for easy mounting. The most common version is with conductive Nickel over Copper textile (Material code T).
The version with highly conductive Amucor foil (Material code A) is designed especially for a combination with aluminum and zinc plated steel. To prevent loss of material and for easy shipping we cut exact lengths. Maximum lengths 2.5 meter.
Also available with a resilient foam rubber insert (i) for more compression just at the moment of closing. Please see technical drawing below for more details.
The V-shape gasket 8700 series is flame retardant, which can be supplied in a UL94V-0 compliant version. If applied as shown in Fig. 3, excellent shielding can be achieved without any permanent closure force. This construction prevents bending of doors, so the enclosure can be less rigid. Also for hinges and locks.
