Environmental
Sealing Overview
Materials
Flat Gaskets
Kemtron stock many types of

elastomeric materials for flexible
environmental sealing but
specialising in silicones,
fluorosilicones, solid and sponge
that meet UL94V-0 and low smoke/
low toxicity. Other materials include
Poron polyurethane, Neoprene/
chloroprene, EPDM etc. Materials
can be supplied as sheet, strip,
laminated, self adhesive backed or
die cut to complex shapes. Liquid
RTV silicone can be applied as a
form in place gasket direct to
customers hardware.
Flat gaskets can be cut by rule die,

kiss cut or more complex shapes by
water jet cutting. Compression stops
or collars can also be incorporated,
this leads to reduced hardware costs
and negates the need for fixings
to be torqued to prevent over
compression and damage to the
gasket. Self adhesive backing can
be applied to the materials prior
to cutting.
Extrusions
O Rings
Extruded profiles include cords,

tubes, D shape, hollow D, P shape
and bespoke profiles to special
order. Flat strips can be extruded or
slit from sheet. Materials include
silicones, fluorosilicones, Poron
urethane foams, EPDM, Neoprene
etc. Extrusions can be supplied as
continuous length or fabricated into
O rings or more complex gaskets.
Kemtron specialises in the

manufacture of bespoke O rings
specialising in silicones and
fluorosilicones. Made from extruded
sections cut to length and the two
ends joined by vulcanisation to
ensure a durable bond and
maintaining the integrity of the
seal. Sections and materials
available are sponge, hollow tube,
solid, D shape, rectangular etc.
Rectangular picture frame gaskets
with mitred corners can also be
made in this way.
Design Tools
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
What is EMC?
The definition of EMC is the measure of equipments capability to neither conduct
electromagnetic energy nor radiate it. The equipment in turn should not be susceptible to any
conducted or radiated emissions from any other source. The two most important characteristics
of electromagnetic waves connected with interference are the amplitude and the frequency of
the waves.
Interference Control
The three main ways in which interference factors can be
controlled are:-
EMI Shielding
The EMI shielding of any enclosure involves all of the
internal and external openings and components.
Using filtering techniques to filter out unwanted

frequencies and thus prevent them from travelling
along signal and input lines.
Reduction of the waves amplitude by careful circuit
design and component layout.
Prevent radiation emission to or from the equipment
by the use of suitable components and materials
to give EMI screening.
The first approach towards good design is to insert
low pass LC filters into the input and output lines to
the equipment. The filters will divert any emanating
interference along the lines to earth.
The openings consist of covers, panels, doors.

The components are panel meters, displays, indicator
lights, connectors, switches, potentiometers, etc.
The next concern is to design the various sections of the

equipment to ensure that sections capable of radiation
are isolated from each other by the use of careful PCB
layout and the use of metal screens wherever required.
To minimise radiation and thereby prevent interference

with other sensitive areas or equipments.
To reduce any radiation to a level this will make it safe
for life for example, microwave ovens.
To prevent unwanted reflections inside equipment
which could cause it to malfunction.
To ensure electrical and mechanical compatibility with
the metal enclosure.
To meet local and international EMC legislation.
The equipment will then need to be shielded to prevent

the ingress or egress of electromagnetic radiation. This is
done by the use of suitable conductive gaskets.
Kemtron Ltd specialise in the manufacture and supply of
suitable gaskets, components and materials.
The success of EMI shielding an enclosure depends

upon the correct selection and application of the
screening materials available. To this end Kemtron
are in a position to advise you on the correct materials
related to your problem.
Effective Shielding
Several reasons exist to create effective shielding of
equipment. Among the more important benefits are:-
(EMC)
Electrical
The electrical requirements are covered by measurements
made to ascertain the level of attenuation required
to fulfil the figures laid down in the appropriate
specification over a specified frequency band.
The data given in the catalogue outlines the typical
attenuation versus frequency of the various materials
when correctly fitted. These figures are corroborated by
independent tests.
Mechanical
The mechanical considerations are of the utmost
importance in the fitment of shielded gaskets.
The design of an EMI shielded enclosure should be
undertaken as if the gasketing will be required. If it is
determined at a later stage that a particular gasket is
not required it is easy to leave this out. If no provision
for the gasket is made and then later required the
modification to implement a gasket can be time
consuming and costly.
Chemical
Two dissimilar metals in the presence of an electrolyte
e.g., sea water. will act as a battery and create a flow of
electric current. This effect can cause corrosion and could
affect the resistivity of the gasket material reducing its
efficiency. In order to minimise or prevent galvanic action
it is important to select compatible metals.
Environmental
Often equipment will need to operate in conditions
where the ingress of moisture would be hazardous to
the correct functioning of the system. To prevent this, an
extra non conductive gasket acting as an environmental
seal can be incorporated into the design of
the enclosure.
A more practical solution is to use an EMI shielded
gasket which incorporates an environmental seal.
There are a variety of types available.
The most effective shielding is provided when a

continuous metal to metal contact is achieved. The metal
surfaces of any enclosure flange are never 100% flat
unless machined to very high tolerances. The function of
the gasket is to take up any differences which may exist
between the surfaces. The type of gasket material and
thickness is thus selected according to the tolerances
with which the enclosure or panel is fabricated.
To ensure metal to metal contact the design should
incorporate, wherever possible, a means to prevent
the over compression of the gasket and thus ensure
evenness of pressure.
It is very important when fitting conductive gaskets that
all contact surfaces be free from contamination and be
highly conductive. The surfaces must therefore be free
of paint, greases etc. and thoroughly cleaned prior to
fitment of the gasket.
Design Tools
Bi-Metallic Corrosion
Because of the number of variables that contribute towards electrolytic or bi-metal corrosion,
it is not practical to illustrate all possible situations and therefore the following data should be
used for guidance only. If more definitive evidence is required, then we suggest that a test be
conducted, employing the materials to be used and analysing the results. As a general rule the
less noble metal corrodes leaving the more noble metal intact, for example, if aluminium and
silver are in contact in the presence of a suitable electrolyte a current will flow, resulting in severe
corrosion of the aluminium.
It should, however, be remembered that many metals are protected from corrosion by natural
oxide or passive films and unless these are broken down then they will behave as if they are
more noble than their electro potential would suggest. Furthermore the geometry and the
relative surface areas of the contacting metals can have a marked reaction on the overall
corrosion reaction.

Design Tools
Storage and installation of Kemtron gaskets with self adhesive backing
Storage:
Gaskets should be stored in original packaging at room temperature at 20C and at relative
humidity of 50%.
Application:
Gaskets should be applied to a smooth, clean and dry surface. Clean the surface with a suitable
solvent such as isopropyl alcohol to remove oils and contamination.
Ideal application temperature range is 20C to 38C, application to surfaces at temperatures
below 10C is not recommended as the adhesive is too firm and will not wet the surface.
Once properly applied, low temperature holding will be satisfactory.
Remove the backing film, and then make sure the gasket is correctly positioned and press down
firmly to ensure a good bond over the entire mounting surface. Avoid any repositioning as this
will reduce the effectiveness of the adhesive and may distort the gasket. Allow 24hrs for the
adhesive to cure and reach its maximum bond strength.

Production Capabilities
Kemtron manufacture conductive elastomers

using four standard highly conductive fillers in both
silicone and fluorosilicone variants, all have slightly
different attributes:
Kemtrons extensive manufacturing facilities combined

with our development team, Quality control and
experienced manufacturing personnel enable us to be
one of Europes leading manufacturers of electrically
conductive elastomers.
Conductive fillers available for Silicone and

Fluorosilicone
Nickel Plated Graphite
A high quality cost effective commercial material with
increased use in the military markets. Easily extruded
or molded. SNG FR grade to UL94 V0 and meets
the requirements of BS 6853:1999 Incorporating
amendment No1. Low smoke and low toxicity.
Silver Plated Aluminium
An excellent grade high performance material
widely used for higher frequency applications in the
commercial and military markets. Lighter in weight
than some other materials.
Silver Plated Copper
This material offers excellent RFI/EMI shielding
performance across the frequency spectrum, but
comes at a higher price and with increased weight.
Nickel
This product has largely been replaced by Nickel
Graphite but is still widely used in military and
aerospace applications. Fluorosilicone has better
aging properties than the silicone. A good performer
at lower frequencies but also heavier than some
other materials.
Silicone (VMQ)
Silicone rubber is used because the end use requires a
material that retains its elastomeric properties over a very
wide range of temperatures and does not degrade due
to the presence of oxygen and ozone.
Silicone elastomers do have weaknesses in their
properties and behavior. In comparison with other
elastomers their tensile, tear and abrasion properties are
significantly poorer, however, they do not decay as the
temperature is increased and above 150C they become
on the whole better.
The swelling and chemical resistance of silicones is
comparable to those of chloroprene rubber, they are not
affected by aliphatic oils however they swell in napthenic
and are attacked by hot aromatic oils.
Silicones main weakness is to hydrolytic attack and
decomposition especially to steam between 120C and
140C, they are also susceptible to attack by acids
and alkalis.
Here at Kemtron we develop, test, compound, mould,

extrude and vulcanize conductive elastomers.
This enables us to be flexible in our approach towards
customer satisfaction.
In addition to our standard range, we can develop and
compound new grades of materials at our facility in the
UK to meet customer specific requirements, subject to
economic minimum quantities.

Materials Data
Properties of elastomers that can be

measured and how they impact on
selection of the appropriate material
for gasket/sealing purposes
Hardness
Hardness is a measure of the degree of indentation
when an indenter of known geometry is placed on the
elastomeric surface under a known constant force for
a fixed time. The different scales used Shore A and IRHD
are defined by the form of the indenter, applied load
and time of reading after indenter application. In a
standard elastomer there is reasonable agreement
between observed hardness and Youngs Modulus (E).
In the case of conductive elastomers this relationship is
not so clear cut since the elastomer acts more as a binder
for the filler and the hardness appears to have a rule of
mixtures response.
Compression set
Compression set (or more correctly permanent set after
compression to a fixed strain) should not be confused
with either Creep or Stress Relaxation. The test was
originally conceived as a measure of state of cure.
The test basically involves compressing a cylinder of
material to a fixed strain and leaving it for a known
temperature for a fixed time. The compression is
removed, the cylinder allowed to recover over a fixed
time and the height re-measured. The value recorded
being the percentage difference according to the
equation below;
Compression set at Constant Strain = to tr x 100
to ts
Where
to
is the original thickness
tr
is the thickness after recovery
ts
is the deflection applied (thickness of shim)
Hence, the test as originally conceived would be carried

out on test pieces cured for varying times at a fixed
Tensile strength and elongation at break

Tensile strength and elongation at break are obtained
from the same standard dumbbell shaped test-piece
punched from a moulded sheet of rubber of known
thickness. By use of tensile test equipment fitted with
an extensometer a stress v strain response curve can be
obtained and a judgement of the stresses and strains
that can be made on the material during service made.
Tear
The tearing properties of a material are obtained using
tensile test equipment and a standard test piece of
known dimensions. Tests are carried out in tension
and the results reported in terms of load required per
distance moved by the tear tip.

temperature and the correct cure determined from

where the compression set value was found to be a
minimum. Although the original purpose of the test
has been superseded by modern rheometers the test
continues to be used. The reason for this being the
belief that the test gives an indication of creep which
can be seen below is not strictly true. Since the test is
an amalgamation of that used to assess creep and
stress relaxation.
Creep also known as cold flow
Creep is defined as the change in strain with time whilst
the elastomer is held under a constant stress. This stress
can take the form of compression, tension and/or shear.
In terms of how creep applies to a seal or gasket,
this is dependent on whether it is constrained or nonconstrained. In the non-constrained environment the
strain within the elastomer will increase with time until
in theory the stress within the elastomer reaches a
minimum. The elastomer seal/gasket will compress and
spread out. In the constrained environment the seal/
gasket will conform to the groove allowed and the
creep arrested.
Materials Data
Stress relaxation
Stress relaxation is defined as the change in stress with
time whilst the elastomer is held under a constant strain.
Consider that you have a seal that during installation is
compressed by 10% of its original thickness. To obtain
this 10% compression requires 100 MPa, and you can
consider that the elastomer is exerting 100 MPa in return
and the seal would be able to retain internal and external
forces of 100 MPa. However, with time and ageing the
stress exerted by the elastomeric seal can decay i.e. it
may only exert 90 MPa yet still be compressed by 10%.
The paragraph above describes the reality of Stress
Relaxation in compression the other two modes of
tension or shear can also be measured.
Certain schools of thought recommend that stress
relaxation issues can be overcome by increasing the
initial compression the seal / gasket is taken to by 25%
in the expectation that stress relaxation will occur and
the operational force will be that required. This approach
obviously assumes that the seal/gasket will be able to
withstand the extra strain and the seal/gasket behavior
to the extra stress remains the same. Consideration must
also be given to whether it is retained in a groove or free
to take up a natural form on deflection.
Compression deflection
This test is carried out using a disc of the gasket/seal
material of a known thickness and diameter to
which is applied a load equivalent to 100 psi and
the deflection measured.
Accelerated ageing tests
In general any of the above tests can be carried out
on test samples either aged or cut from test sheets
which have been exposed to air ageing at an elevated
temperature. Such tests may give an indication of
how the material will perform in the long term in the
service environment.
Standard Tests Specific to

Conductive Elastomers
Volume resistivity
In this test a sample of the conductive Elastomer whose
dimensions are known is put under compression to a
known strain. The difference between the known
applied current is compared to that flowing through
the Elastomer and the resistivity of the Elastomer.
Volume resistivity after extension/break
This test is the same as that for volume resistivity except
that the sample is punched from the central strip of a
dumbbell that has been stretched to break and then
allowed to recover for thirty minutes.
Dynamic volume resistivity

In this test the variation in the volume resistivity is
measured whilst a sample of known dimensions is put
under a fixed load. The load is then oscillated around
this fixed point by a known amount over a range of
frequencies and the volume resistivity recorded.
The purpose of this test is to give an indication as to
how the seal/gasket will perform in service when the
vibrations from equipment operations are imposed
upon it.
Conductive Silicone & Fluorosilicone

Elastomers Product Handling & Storage
Conductive elastomer products are expected to provide
a service life of many years. However, if the product is to
be stored, certain factors may have a detrimental effect.
Kemtron recommend that the following precautions are
carefully observed to ensure product longevity:
Handling
These materials should not be subjected to stretching in
either storage or installation otherwise the conductive
particles may disperse in the rubber, resulting in
degradation of the shielding performance. In addition
materials should be handled using cotton gloves to
prevent surface contamination. Extra care must be used
when fitting gaskets into channels, especially O rings.
The product should be eased into the final groove shape
from each end or opposite diagonals, working slowly
inwards or round the outside. It must not be placed in at
one end and simply pushed in along the length, this will
stretch the gasket and leave excess material. If in doubt
please contact us for our recommendations.
Storage temperature
It is recommended that the product be stored at normal
ambient temperatures.
Exposure to light & UV
Exposure to any UV source (i.e artificial or natural light)
should be avoided if possible. It should be kept stored
in light proof, sulphur free packaging.
Method of storage
The material must be stored without any stretching
or crushing. It is best kept in light proof, sulphur free
polythene bags or light proof, sulphur free boxes.
Contact with other materials
The product should not be allowed to come
into contact with Solvents, oils & greases, PVC,
any material containing sulphur, dissimilar rubbers
or metal containers.
This test gives an indication of the behavior of the

material if it is stretched during installation or is re-used
during servicing.

Extrusions
Product Overview
Kemtron manufacture a wide variety of profiles from our standard tooling.

We are also able to produce to your exact requirement with minimal
tooling cost.
Extruded profiles are available in continuous, cut lengths or fabricated to
your requirements, such as rectangles by vulcanizing the joints. This process
uses the same conductive polymer compound. Ensuring complete electrical
conductivity is maintained across the joints. Please see O ring section.
Design Considerations
When selecting a profile it is important to give
attention to the mechanical design of your product.
Round and D section seals should ideally be mounted
in a suitably sized channel or groove.
If the gasket is to fit in a groove. It is important that
the gasket size chosen does not overfill the groove,
when using solid sections you should ensure that
the groove cross sectional area is a minimum of
5% greater than the proposed gasket cross section.
See grove design data.
Attention must also be paid to the closing force
required to compress the gasket to the working
height required.
Self adhesive backing usually only partially covers
an area of extrusions and is non-conductive.
This is offered as an assembly aid only.

Gaskets in Grooves
For the typical electronic enclosure, groove mounted
gaskets are better than surface mounted gaskets
because when the gasket is compressed in the groove
the two mating flanges can come into contact with each
other thereby enhancing the EMC performance with the
advantage of the groove acting as a compression stop
and therefore protecting the gasket from damage at the
same time.

Solid and Hollow Gaskets in Grooves

Because solid and tubular style gaskets, when

compressed, cannot change their volume the groove
has to be larger in width to accommodate the change
in shape, otherwise severe gasket damage can be
caused when the flanges are fixed together. This
can result in loss of compression on the gasket and
compression set occurring. This will give a reduction
of shielding effectiveness, coupled with the possibility
of environmental leakage. The groove width should
be from 5% to 35% larger than the gasket width,
but this is dependent upon the gasket profile being used.
For example, a round section gasket has less volume
than a square section gasket of the same diameter/
width.

The important factor is that in the worst case of high

tolerances on the gasket size versus low tolerances on
the groove size is that when the gasket is compressed by
both flanges, it fills the available space by no more than
100%, i.e.: the volume of the accommodating groove
with both flanges touching should be equal to, but be
no less than the volume of the gasket cross section.

Knife Edge into Grooves

with Tubular Gaskets
Large applications, such as cabinets, may use a tubular
type gasket fitted into a groove and the mating flange
known as a knife edge. The knife edge plunges into the
gasket causing the seal. With tubular gaskets the knife
edge collapses the gasket rather than compressing it.
The knife edge should not penetrate the gasket by more
than 50% of its diameter or there may be a danger of
the gasket being unable to recover due to the excess
pressure applied by the knife edge.

The above cross sectional area groove sizes allow for the
free movement of the gasket when being compressed.
This method of calculation ensures that the volume of
the gasket does not exceed that of the groove when
fully compressed, resulting in groove overfill. This also
minimises the amount of compression force required to
achieve a good RFI/EMI seal.
It is important to note that when designing in an EMC
gasket, that the principles of O ring design for pressure
sealing do not apply. The groove depth dimension is
the most important, as it is this that limits the gasket
compression. The groove width has no maximum
dimension and is only there for gasket location purposes.
Tighter groove dimensions using volume calculations
may be employed to enhance environmental sealing.
However this will increase the compression forces
required.
Tolerances
Up to 2.0mm 0.1mm
2.0mm to 5.0mm 0.15mm
It is also important to consider the tolerances of the
gasket and the groove.
Compressed Gasket
Internal Bend Radius

Casting With Solid Cord Gasket
The minimum internal bend radius of a solid cord gasket is 1.5 x cross
section of cord.
Casting With Tube Gasket
The above calculations are based on reducing the depth

of the groove by a given compression % and increasing
the width by the same amount less 5% EG: 20%
reduction in depth 15% increase in width.
When choosing a tube section as a gasket it is
recommended that consideration be given to the lower
compression forces, making sure that there is enough
resilience in the gasket to ensure a good RFI/EMI seal.
In these cases it is sometimes better to use the volume
groove size calculation, with the groove side walls
offering support for the tube.
26
The minimum internal bend radius of a tube gasket where the id of the
tube is no greater than 30% of the cross section is 2.5 x cross section
of tube.

Product Overview
Flat gaskets are produced from moulded sheet using economic rule dies.
Larger gaskets can be cut from moulded or fabricated picture frames.
This option has the advantage of saving material and allows larger gaskets
to be produced economically. Fabricated frames use either extruded or
moulded flat section that is joined by vulcanizing the polymer. The same
conductive polymer compound is used to vulcanize the joints ensuring
complete electrical conductivity is maintained across the joint.
This process has allowed Kemtron to produce gaskets up to 2 meters long,
with the same mechanical and electrical integrity as is found in a single part
gasket cut from sheet. This method of manufacture often offers cost
savings over cutting from sheet with subsequent loss of waste material.
Our in-house production facilities are suitable for prototype, short and
medium production runs, up to commercial quantities.
It is important that this material is not overcompressed. If the design of the equipment does not
allow for any mechanical method of preventing overcompression, the gasket should be fitted with built-in
compression limiters, either metal stops fitted to the
gasket, or metal collars fitted into each fixing hole.
The material is not suitable in sliding applications.
Recommended compression: 10% to 20%.
Self adhesive backing (conductive or non-conductive)
is offered as an assembly aid only.
Fluorosilicone: self-adhesive backing is not
recommended for use with this type of elastomer.
Minimum material width should not be less than 2mm
or at least the material thickness in any part of the
gasket. If this cannot be achieved around fixing holes
consider using a slot. Particular attention is required if
specifying compression collars in holes.
36
Consideration must be given to compression forces,

hole centres, size and number of fixings and rigidity
of mating flanges.
Integral compression stops or collars should be
considered to limit over compression if external
controls cannot be applied. Recommended minimum
sheet thickness for integral limits is 1.5mm.

Surface Mounted Gaskets
Compression 3
With surface mounted elastomeric gaskets, the aim

should be to limit the compression of the gasket to
between 10% and 20%. 10% being the minimum
with a solid silicone style of gasket. (Some form of
compression stop or limit is essential with surface
mounted gaskets to prevent over compression).
Compression stops can be built into many styles of
gasket, or made as an integral part of the flange. Their
height should equal that of the maximum compressed
height of the gasket. Compression stops fitted into
gaskets can be in the form of collars or washers so that
fixing bolts can pass through them or as solid studs
located either side of a fixing bolt.
Compression Limit Applications
The thickness of the gasket for a known application can

be calculated as follows e.g. Consider a gasket which
can be compressed between 10% and 25% to be used
on flanges which are not perfectly flat, i.e. the flanges
without gaskets touch at some points and leave gaps
in others. Since the gasket will compress between
10% and 25% we will require 25% compression at the
high points and 10% at the low points (the gaps).
The greatest gap is therefore 15% of the gasket
thickness. If that gap is 0.45mm, then a gasket of
3.0mm thickness is required
10mm
10mm
Limit Stops Min

Dia 3mm
Limit Collars
This is fine in theory provided that the flanges do

not bow when placed under load. To overcome
flange distortion, fixings may need to be added,
the number of which will be determined by the flange
stiffness/rigidity.

Product Overview
Kemtron Form-in-Place (FIP) Elastomer compounds are directly dispensed

onto component hardware or enclosure via a pressurised fluid dispensing
system on a numerically controlled XYZ table to form a gasket for RFI/EMI
shielding and/or environmental seal for dust and moisture. The dispensing
machine deposits the gasket by following a pre-determined CNC path to
provide accuracy and repeatability.
The process advantages are
Component is integrated with EMI shielding
and/ or environmental gasket.
Materials are one-component room curable.
Assembly time is reduced as gasket is
included on component.
Rapid prototyping.
Low setup costs.
Smaller gasket land required.
Variety of materials available to optimise
shielding and galvanic compatibility.
No material waste.
Excellent EMI shielding.
Can be applied to metal and plastic
components.
39
Product Overview (Continued)

Applications
Suited to applications where small, intricate gasket
profiles are required, such as on multi-compartment
labyrinth housings with minimum gasket land area
where traditional larger types of gasket are not suitable.
This process also negates the assembly costs associated
with traditional gaskets as the Form-in-Place gasket
becomes an integral part of the housing or enclosure.
The process is suitable for depositing on both metal
and metallised plastic components/housing.
Availability
Kemtron can dispense FIP gaskets directly onto the
customers free issue hardware or can procure the
component hardware thereby reducing the customers
supply base. Kemtron can also supply FIP compounds in
syringes or Semco cartridges for the customers own use.
Form- in-Place gasket materials include:
For RFI/EMI Shielding
Silver plated copper filled silicone.
Silver plated aluminium filled silicone.
Silver plated nickel filled silicone.
Nickel coated graphite filled silicone.
To achieve optimum EMI shielding performance
the component surface on which the gasket is to
be deposited must be highly conductive as low
contact resistance is required between the two.
Chromate finishes on aluminium must be conductive.
The gasket height can be specified between 0.4mm
to 2.0mm, gasket width will typically be 1.5x the
gasket height. General tolerance is +/-0.1mm.
Recommended gasket compression is between 20%
and 30%. Over-compression can damage the gasket
and as compression stops cannot be incorporated
into the gasket they should be designed into the
component hardware.
Gasket path for the deposition can be determined
from a sample part, drawings or CAD files.
Production Capability
To meet the varying demands of customer requirements
Kemtron has developed its own CNC Form-in-Place
dispenser. FIP gasketing work has become a regular
feature of our production work and we are able to
provide a reliable, accurate and quick response to even
high volume orders.

and in a suitable location then the material will remain
usable for up to 3 months, depending on type.
Handling
When using this material observe usual standards of
industrial hygiene/practice. Avoid skin/eye contact
and work in a well ventilated area. For more detailed
information please refer to the MSDS (Material Safety
Data Sheet).

Availability

barrels from which the material may be directly applied.
Both formats will accept a variety of dispense tips
(including luer lock types) for accurate, controlled
application. Larger sizes of 55ml, 170ml & 310ml
are available on request.
Electrically Conductive Epoxy Adhesives
Very high bond strength.
Room temperature cure.
Flexible degree is variable by adjusting mix ratio.
Extremely resistant to fracture.
Safe for use with most common substrates
non tarnishing / discolouring.
Excellent resistance to ageing.
Wide service temperature range retains strength
and conductivity at extremes of temperature.
Stable low bond (joint) resistance through
temperature cycling.
Kembond Epoxy can be supplied in either 4ml or 10ml
double syringe packs. The material is automatically
dispensed in the correct 50:50 ratio. Alternatively, this
material can be supplied in separate syringe barrels
where variable mix ratios are to be used.
The adhesive mix ratio for epoxy may be varied in order

to modify the cured properties. For most applications
we would recommend a 50:50 mix ratio that will
result in a cured adhesive with a small degree of
flexibility, high strength and reasonably good low
temperature performance.
Increasing the proportion of hardener up to around
a maximum of 125:50 will result in a cured adhesive
with a relatively high degree of flexibility along with
improved low temperature performance but other
physical properties will be reduced.
Ensure the two components are thoroughly mixed.
Once mixed this material has a working (or pot) life of
approximately one hour (depending on the ambient
temperature) and may be transferred to a syringe for
precise application if required.
Assemble parts as soon as possible and certainly within
15-30 minutes of adhesive application.
In most cases parts may be handled after 12 hours but
avoid stressing the joint until full cure has been achieved.
Cure rate may be controlled by means of temperature.
The adhesive will fully cure within 3 hours at 60C.
If curing at elevated temperatures be careful to avoid
excessive adhesive outflow due to the uncured adhesive
viscosity reducing during the curing process.
Excess material should be removed by means of a spatula
or similar implement. Smaller traces of the uncured
material may be removed by wiping with a lint free cloth
damped with methylated spirit, isopropyl alcohol or MEK
taking care to observe the safety precautions required in
using flammable/harmful solvents of this type.
A priming agent is available for treating some
inconsistent or difficult to bond surfaces. Please contact
us for further information.

Galvanic compatibility.
Rigid or flexible bond.
Instructions for Use
Surfaces should be clean dry and sound i.e. free from
loose material. It is recommended that areas to be
bonded are cleaned using a suitable solvent prior to
applying the sealant.
To ensure the highest level of electrical or shielding
performance it is essential that the surfaces to be
bonded have a low contact resistance. This means that
materials that have a naturally occurring oxide layer
such as aluminium alloys may need to be lightly abraded
and cleaned directly prior to bonding.

Product Overview
A flat, sheet material, comprising a solid or sponge silicone rubber,

embedded with Monel or Aluminium metal wires orientated perpendicular
to its surface. Excellent RFI/EMI/EMP shielding performance is achieved as
the material has a wire density of 140 wires/cm2 in solid silicone and
100 wires/cm2 in sponge silicone providing an environmental and RFI/EMI
seal when clamped between two metallic surfaces.
The wires are crimped to aid compression and are chemically bonded
to ensure their retention in the silicone. They will also penetrate most oxide
layers, ensuring a low contact resistance path when suitably compressed.
This material also demonstrates EMP survivability.
Application
A good solution for achieving RFI/EMI/EMP and
Environmental sealing in a single gasket.
Ideal for use as access panels, seals, connector
gaskets etc.
Good conformity to allow for uneven surfaces.
Availability
Kemtron is able to offer a wide variety of options as
the material is cut in-house from large blocks, up to
228mm wide, using our high-speed slicer, enabling
us to offer all thicknesses (subject to material type)
to suit the customers exact design requirement.
Die- cut gaskets.
Large fabricated gaskets.
Virtually any flat shape can be produced.
Sheet material.
Strip material available in continuous lengths.
Self-adhesive backing to allow for easy assembly.
Can be fitted with compression limit stops or collars.
Small gaskets can be punched in one operation,

keeping production costs to a minimum.
Larger gaskets can be produced cost effectively and
without the constraint of sheet size limitation from
strips of material fabricated into the required finished
shape, thus avoiding waste material from the centre
of the gasket.
A fluorosilicone version is available for use in
environments where fuels / oils / hydraulic fluids
and other contaminants are present.
Solid Silicone, for use in applications where
higher compression forces allow for better
environmental sealing.
Sponge Silicone requiring lower compression forces.
45

It is important that this material is not overcompressed. If the design of the equipment does
not allow for any mechanical method of preventing
over-compression, the gasket should be fitted with
built-in compression limiters, either metal stops
fitted to the gasket, or metal collars fitted into
each fixing hole.
There is no need for a conductive connection where
strips are joined as the wires forming the EMC contact
run vertically though the material; a waterproof seal
is achieved by vulcanising the join with silicone.
The material is not suitable for frequent opening
or sliding applications.
Recommended compression: Solid 15% to 20%,
Sponge 15% to 25%.
Fluorosilicone: self-adhesive backing is not
recommended for use with this type of elastomer.
Minimum material width should not be less than
2mm or at least the material thickness in any part of
the gasket. If this cannot be achieved around fixing
holes consider using a slot. Particular attention is
required if specifying compression collars in holes.
Particular consideration must be given to compression
forces (see data in this section) hole centres, size and
number of fixings and rigidity of mating flanges.
Gasket fabrication is a routine feature of our work,

enabling us to produce economic gaskets by maximising
material usage, without the limitations of sheet width.
Joins are vulcanised using a silicone compound and overcompression stops or collars can be fitted to the gasket
if required.
Our in-house production facilities are suitable for
prototype, short and medium production runs, up to
commercial quantities.

Kemtron holds large stocks of raw material blocks,
which are cut in-house on one of the most advanced
slicing machines in Europe, and which enables us to
produce bespoke gaskets economically and on time.
We are able to cut sheets up to 228mm wide by 900mm
long, whilst holding a parallel tolerance of +/-0.2mm
and can apply self-adhesive backing prior to die cutting
and or fabrication.

Woven & Expanded

Wire in Elastomers
Product Overview
A composite of metal wire mesh impregnated with an elastomer, creating a

highly conductive and resilient gasketing material for EMI/RFI shielding
and environmental sealing applications.
Choose from:
Woven aluminium wire, expanded aluminium or expanded Monel sheet,
impregnated with an elastomer filler Silicone, fluorosilicone or synthetic rubber or;
Expanded Monel sheet without elastomer filler.
The conductive metallic surfaces of the material provide an excellent low resistance contact
whilst under the correctly designed conditions the rubber component ensures effective dust
and moisture sealing.
The exposed metallic points on the woven product, where the weave of the wire overlaps,
create approximately 80 contacts per cm2 whilst the raised edge on the expanded sheet product
creates approximately 20 contacts per cm2.
Applications
Provides an economic approach to gasketing flat surfaces
where unevenness does not exceed 0.10mm and/or
where material thickness constraints occur.
Particularly suited to small thin gaskets such as MIL type
connectors etc. Other thin gaskets can be made in-house
using specialist cutting methods and the material can
also be supplied as continuous sheet for customers own
production purposes.
Availability
Can be supplied as
Continuous roll, 305mm wide, in 0.5mm and 0.8mm
thickness (see specification).
Standard connectors.
Bespoke gaskets made to customers specification.
Fluorosilicone versions are suitable for applications

where fuels/oils/hydraulic fluids and other contaminants
are present.
49
Woven & Expanded

Wire in Elastomers
These materials are not suitable for joining or
fabricating. Gaskets are only available as a single part.
Gasket size is limited to 300mm in width with
minimal constraints on length.
Minimum material width should not be less than
2.5mm in any part of the gasket. If this cannot be
achieved around fixing holes, consider using a slot.
As these materials are of a solid nature they
give very little compression and should therefore
be used between ridged flat surfaces with a
combined flatness tolerance of 0.1mm maximum.
Compression limiting stops are therefore not
normally required with these materials.
Self-adhesive backing is not recommended.
Kemtron holds large stocks of raw materials which,
together with our in-house facilities using precision
laser cut rule dies, enables us to produce bespoke
gaskets economically and on time, whether for
prototype, short and medium production runs or
for commercial quantities.

Knitted Wire Mesh
Overview
A range of knitted wire mesh gaskets, providing a cost-effective solution to

high shielding performance applications in the magnetic and electrical fields
RFI/EMI and including EMP.
Manufactured on a circular wire knitting machine using a single wire.
The mono-filament interlocking-loop construction gives strength while
allowing it to conform to almost any size or shape. The manufacturing
process allows for an optional elastomer core to be included in to the
product to aid compression. An additional environmental seal/carrier
is also an option. It is available in a variety of combinations to suit many
EMC and environmental sealing applications.
Kemtrons knitted wire mesh is available
in 3 options
1. Solid Knitted Wire Mesh.
2. Elastomer cored knitted wire mesh.
3. Knitted wire mesh with an additional
environmental seal.
Kemtron has developed its knitted wire mesh production
facility and expertise in this area to enable it to produce
RFI/EMI gaskets in a wide range of materials and in many
different size configurations. Together with our extensive
fabrication capabilities and large stocks of raw materials,
we can manufacture knitted wire mesh gaskets to suit
many applications.
We offer a bespoke service, which can also produce
economical gaskets, with good delivery times,
in prototype quantities or for short, medium or large
commercial production runs.

Product Overview
The product consists of a knitted wire that is formed into an all wire
profile forming a continuous gasket strip.
Application
Solid knitted mesh gaskets provide an excellent
EMI/RFI/EMP gasket shield between two metallic surfaces
and with the choice of wire mesh material available
allows for a good galvanic match with mating flanges,
thereby limiting the possibility of corrosion between
gasket and flange.
RFI/EMI/EMP applications.
Panel seals in screened rooms.
Areas with infrequent access.
Cable Shielding (Wrapping with flat bandage).
Availability
In continuous lengths, cut to length or fabricated
into finished gaskets by spot welding and stitching
to suit customer requirements.
Variety of profiles and sizes available.
Fabricated gaskets.
Compressed mesh rings.
Self adhesive backing is not recommended with
this version of mesh.
Consideration should be given to the termination of
cut mesh ends. Sometimes loose wires are evident
after cutting. Kemtron are experts at mesh termination
however if you choose to cut the mesh yourself loose
wires can be avoided by:
Dipping the end in glue,
Spot welding the cut end.
Sewing the cut mesh end.
Compression forces required to achieve good contact.
Also the rigidity of the host metalwork.
Galvanic compatibility. Select from a choice of wire.
Water and moisture sealing is not possible with this
product. However it does offer a limited dust seal.
Solid knitted wire mesh suffers from compression
set. So it is not recommended for frequent opening
of panels.

Knitted Wire Mesh

Product Overview
This product is a knitted wire mesh over an elastomer core such as

neoprene or silicone cellular profile or tube. Usually this consists of 2 layers
of knitting over the elastomer core but small sections 1.5mm diameter
requiring only 1 layer. The knitted mesh is then formed into the selected
profile making a continuous gasket strip which is flexible and compressible
and which makes an excellent RFI/EMI/EMP gasket.
Application
In addition to making an excellent EMI/RFI/EMP shield
between two metallic surfaces the choice of wire mesh
material available also allows for a good galvanic match
with mating flanges, thereby limiting the possibility
of corrosion between gasket and flange. Further, the
elastomer core of the gasket allows it to be compressed
using low to medium force conforming to uneven
surfaces and recovering well after use.
Dipping the end in glue,
Groove gaskets such as O rings.

Due to its resiliency and low compression force,
ideal for use in situations where repeated opening
and closing operations are necessary.
Compression forces required to allow good contact.

Also the rigidity of the host metalwork.
Galvanic compatibility. Select from a choice or wire.
Water and moisture sealing is not possible with this
product. However, it does offer a limited dust seal.
Availability
In continuous lengths.
Cut to length.
Fabricated into finished gaskets.
Variety of profiles and sizes.
Fabricated gaskets.
Selection of wire to meet galvanic
compatibility requirements.
Large selection of elastomer cores are available
to meet conditions such as temperature range,
compression set, compression force.
Although round or rectangular cross sections are
the most commonly used, other sections
can be made to custom designs.
Where EMP protection is needed, a minimum of
7 layers is recommended. Additional layers can
also be added depending on the application of
the equipment and degree of shielding required.
Self adhesive backing is not recommended with
this version of mesh.

Knitted Wire Mesh

with an Environmental Seal
Product Overview
Manufactured from either solid knitted wire mesh or knitted wire mesh
over an elastomer core bonded to an elastomer environmental seal.
Application
This type of gasket is very suitable where a high level
of shielding is required along with an environmental
seal. Provides an economic approach to combination
RFI/EMI/EMP and environmental sealing.
Suitable for gaps with large tolerances.

Door seals.
Panel seals.
Due to its resiliency and low compression force,
ideal for use in situations where repeated opening
and closing operations are necessary.
Availability
Continuous lengths up to 10 mtrs long.
Fabricated gaskets to customers drawings.
Can be fitted with compression limit stops
or collars.
Easily assembled using the optional self
adhesive backing.
A broad range of sizes available.
A large range of materials to suit many
RFI/EMI/EMP and climatic conditions including NBC.
Large fabricated gaskets can be
produced economically.
UL flame retardant approved materials are
also available.
It is important that this material is not
over-compressed. If the design of the equipment
does not allow for any mechanical method of
preventing over-compression, the gasket should be
fitted with built-in compression limiters, either metal
stops fitted to the gasket, or metal collars fitted
into each fixing hole.
When specifying die cut gaskets minimum material
width should not be less than 2mm or at least the
material thickness in any part of the gasket. If this
cannot be achieved around fixing holes consider using
a slot. Particular attention is required if specifying
compression collars in holes.
forces hole centres, size and number of fixings and
rigidity of mating flanges.

Surface Mounted Gaskets
Compression 3
With surface mounted elastomeric gaskets, the aim

should be to limit the compression of the gasket to
between 10% and 20%. 10% being the minimum
with a solid silicone style of gasket. (Some form of
compression stop or limit is essential with surface
mounted gaskets to prevent over compression).
Compression stops can be built into many styles of
gasket, or made as an integral part of the flange. Their
height should equal that of the maximum compressed
height of the gasket. Compression stops fitted into
gaskets can be in the form of collars or washers so that
fixing bolts can pass through them or as solid studs
located either side of a fixing bolt.
The thickness of the gasket for a known application can
be calculated as follows e.g. Consider a gasket which
can be compressed between 10% and 25% to be used
on flanges which are not perfectly flat, i.e. the flanges
without gaskets touch at some points and leave gaps
in others. Since the gasket will compress between
10% and 25% we will require 25% compression at the
high points and 10% at the low points (the gaps).
The greatest gap is therefore 15% of the gasket
thickness. If that gap is 0.45mm, then a gasket of
3.0mm thickness is required
10mm
10mm
Limit Stops Min

Dia 3mm
Limit Collars
This is fine in theory provided that the flanges do

not bow when placed under load. To overcome
flange distortion, fixings may need to be added,
the number of which will be determined by the
flange stiffness/rigidity.

Conductive Fabric
Over Foam Gaskets
Product Overview
This product is manufactured from a synthetic polyester or nylon yarn which

is plated to give electrical conductivity over the surface of the fibre and then
woven in a traditional way so as to produce a conductive cloth. The cloth is
then slit and wrapped over a soft polyether polyurethane foam core in a
range of profiles and results in an economically priced conformable
conductive gasket strip suitable for many applications.
Applications
The versatility of Conductive Fabric Over Foam and
the huge variety of profiles available makes the
product suitable for a wide range of applications where
full EMC screening is required between component
parts especially in high cycling and wiping applications
and where low compression and excellent abrasion
resistance are considerations. Typical applications include
Cabinet doors.
Panel gaskets.
Grounding contacts.
Card cage gaskets.
Connector and IO gaskets.
Availability
Profiles are available in 2100mm lengths with some
obtainable in continuous length. Depending on the
profile the product can be
Cut to length.
Die cut to form fabricated gaskets.
Notched for 90 degree fabrication.
Mitred.
Supplied with clip on and edge mounting or
with self-adhesive backing.
Have fire resistant properties to UL94VO.
Compression between 10% and 70%.
Whilst a limited dust seal can be achieved, additional
environmental sealing, if needed, is required.
Consideration must be given to compression
forces and corrosion compatibility.
Consider the minimum land area on die cut parts,

we would suggest that it is equal to the thickness
of the material.
Kemtron holds large stocks of Conductive Fabric
Over Foam profiles, which can be supplied to customers
off the shelf or die or kiss cut or fabricated to their
requirements. Gasket fabrication is a routine feature
of our work enabling us to produce economic gaskets
by maximising material usage, using a range of in-house
cutting and stamping equipment, which is suitable for
prototype, short and medium production runs, up to
commercial quantities.

Product Overview
Beryllium copper (BeCu) spring finger and contact gaskets are

manufactured by punching or etching thin BeCu strip which is pressed
and formed into the required final shape and then heat treated to give
it memory.
Due to their high conductivity, BeCu gaskets provide good EMI/RFI shielding together with low
closure force properties and are available in a number of plated finishes and mounting styles.
In certain closing applications the wiping action enhances shielding performance.
The end product results in a low resistance contact finger with excellent anti-corrosion
properties that remains flexible within acceptable limits for many years.
Application
BeCu fingers are suited for use in high cycling RFI/EMI
and EMP applications where frequent access is required
as their construction makes them resistant to fatigue and
only low compression forces are needed. They are suited
to high and low temperature applications and their
wiping action makes them ideal for use in:
Cabinet doors.
Access panels.
Personnel doors in screened rooms and containers.
Shielded rooms.
Grounding contacts.
Availability
There are short lead times on most gaskets,
which are available in a large range of standard profiles
in strips, generally 406mm (16) long. Longer lengths
are available with some in continuous lengths.
Gaskets can be applied using adhesive tape, or can
be slot mounted, clipped on or soldered and in addition
to the standard finish can also be supplied in Tin,
Nickel and Silver finishes.
This product does not provide an environmental seal.
Over-compression can result in damaged fingers and
loss of effectiveness.
78
Ensure galvanic compatibility with mounting surfaces.

Fixing method must be appropriate to the application
Exposed gaskets are susceptible to damage, catching on
clothing etc.
BeCu gaskets are usually supplied in 406mm (16)
lengths, but can be cut to requirements and, depending
on the profile, are available in continuous longer lengths.
To ensure galvanic compatibility gaskets can be supplied
in a range of finishes including tin, nickel, zinc/clear
chromate, gold, silver and nickel.
Mounting styles include clip-on, stick-on, snap-on,
low profile and hook-ondium or large commercial
production runs.

There are no special toxic hazards associated with the

handling of copper beryllium alloys. However cuts and
abrasions should be treated by normal first aid methods
and it is advised that after contact with copper-beryllium
alloys the hands should be washed before food is eaten.
Care should also be taken, as with other metal alloys,
to remove all metal particles from the wound whilst
normal hygiene standards should be observed.
Further information can be found in The Health
and Safety Executive (UK) Guidance Note EH13
Beryllium health and safety precautions.
Beryllium copper alloy 25 (CA172) is used in these
applications for maximum spring properties of
strengthand fatigue resistance.

Aluminium Honeycomb
RFI/EMI Shielding
Product Overview
Aluminium Honeycomb Air Ventilation Panels consist of an aluminium

honeycomb foil held in a rigid extruded aluminium mounting frame.
The foil, formed and laminated into a series of honeycomb cells that are
glued and perforated or laser welded at the join, ensures a conductive
path at each join. Although the foil is conductive in all directions,
to enhance EMI performance, two pieces of honeycomb polarised at
90 to each other are recommended.
The frame can be supplied with an integral or separate EMI/RFI gasket,
and can be treated with a variety of finishes to provide corrosion protection
or improve conductivity.
How do Honeycomb vents work:
The principle is that of Waveguide beyond cutoff. The honeycomb vent is series of tubes that
acts as a waveguide, guiding electromagnetic waves into or out of the enclosure, but as the
tubes are long enough then it attenuates those waves. Typically the tube should be at least
3 times as long as the diameter. Good practice is 4 times. Therefore a 3.18mm cell should
be 12.7mm long.Honeycomb material is used because it offers high shielding performance,
light weight and good airflow.
A standard range of Honeycomb vents are available, drawings and part numbers are shown at
the end of this data sheet.

Honeycomb specification and availability:
Kemtron uses 5052 grade aluminium foil which is a
lightweight material offering superior strength and
corrosion resistance over commercial grade aluminium
foils. It meets all the requirements of MIL-C-7438.
Kemtrons standard honeycomb vent uses 2 layers of

1
/8 cell X thick laid at 90, this is known as cross cell.
Cross cell honeycomb improves shielding performance by
eliminating any polarizing effects.
Standard straight cell sizes & thicknesses held in stock
3.2mm (0.125) cell x 12.70mm (0. 50) thick

3.2mm (0.125) cell x 6.35mm (0.25) thick

Frame styles available
Frame styles 1701,1702,1703,1704 and 1707 will
accommodate 2 layers of 3.2 x 6.35mm thick
honeycomb, one layer of 3.2mm cell x 6.35mm thick
and one layer of 3.2mm x 6.35mm thick angled
honeycomb or one layer 12.7mm thick honeycomb
Notched corner
Frame styles 1705 and 1706 will accommodate 1 layer

of 3.2 or 1.6mm cell x 6.35mm thick honeycomb.
Also possible to accommodate 2 layers of 3.2mm
cell x 3.2mm thick honeycomb
Frame style 1709 main use is for dust filter panels that
can be fitted over EMC vent panels, but can
accommodate one layer of 3.2 or 1.6mm cell x 6.35mm
thick honeycomb, however this is not recommended.
Frame style 1708 is a dividing/support bar for large vents.
Vents are normally supplied with three notched and one
welded corner to achieve the best trade off between
cost and performance. This combined with an EMC
gasket is normally sufficient for all but the most
demanding EMC specifications. In the event that the
best possible attenuation is required all corners can be
supplied fully welded. Please note that styles 1702 &
1704 are always supplied fully welded due to the nature
of their construction.

Finishes
Vent panels can be supplied with a range of
finishes including:
Painted.
Tin or nickel plating.
Kempass (RoHS ) Aluminium Passivation process.
Trivalent chromium (RoHS compliant)
or Hexavalent chromium.
Kemtrons standard finish (Kempass) for aluminium
vent panels fully meets the RoHS directive and replaces
Alocrom1200 which is a hexavalient chromium process.
Kemtrons in-house process applies a permanganate
passivation which is a chromate free, inorganic and
non toxic coating. The process produces a dense,
uniform coating consisting of aluminium and reduced
manganese oxides giving a light yellow colour to the
surface. The surface finish is conductive with a low
contact resistance equalling Alocrom 1200. It also meets
all requirements of MIL-C-5541E for corrosion and
electrical conductivity. We are also able to offer a
comprehensive range of painted finishes to complement
our standard Kempass finish. Using industry leading wet
paint solutions from Trimite, we offer full painting and
preparation to DEF STAN specifications including matt
and gloss finishes.
In addition we can also offer Infra Red Reflecting (IRR)
matt finishes complying with DEF STAN 00-23, 80-166
and STANAG 2338.
For less critical / commercial applications requiring a
protected finish we recommend polyester powder
coating. This is tough material that offers excellent
resistance to fresh and saltwater, petrol, linseed and
penetrating oils, along with limited resistance to various
acids. We are happy to advise on specific examples
if required. As the epoxy process is an electrostatic
method, it offers excellent penetration of the
honeycomb cells, further aiding resistance to corrosion.
With both processes, we are able to offer a full range
of colours to RAL/BS charts.

Product Overview
Shielded windows provide a high performance EMI shield while

maintaining optimum optical transparency.
Screening or shielding of optical windows is achieved by using either:
A very fine woven wire mesh trapped between or embedded in a clear optical
substrate such as acrylic, polycarbonate or glass, or
A transparent vapour deposited conductive coating such as Indium Tin Oxide
or Gold applied to the surface of the clear optical substrate.
Termination of the window to the enclosure is achieved with a continuous low resistance
conductive edge around the window, either a conductive buss bar and conductive gasket,
or extended wire mesh (see window mounting)
Application
EMI shielded windows provide an EMI screen as
part of a shielded enclosure which will provide
protection against radiated emissions and susceptibility.
Shielded windows provide good transparency for
viewing display devices such as LED, LCD, vacuum
fluorescent, plasma etc and they can also form the
front panel of an enclosure to provide impact protection,
contrast enhancement of displays, display colour
matching, anti reflection and an anti glare surfaces.
Large windows can provide transparent EMI shielding
for architectural use such as computer rooms, shielded
rooms, MRI rooms and secure communication cabins.
Availability
EMI shielded windows are made to customer
specification. Sizes can range from 1cm up to
1x2 metres for architectural use. Windows can be
silk screened or printed with logos, information etc.
Termination can be by mechanical clamping using
a conductive gasket or by bonding into the enclosure
with a conductive adhesive.
Notice
119

Optical Substrates
Shielding Media
Acrylic is a versatile substrate available in a range of

colours to match display outputs to improve contrast
enhancement including clear, which exhibits 92% light
transmission, through to infra-red transmitting opaque
materials. Acrylic is easily machined and formed making
it suitable for front panels needing cut outs, holes,
steps etc. Multiple layers can be fully laminated with
fine wire meshes together with different colour
combinations and the inclusion of circular polarizers.
Acrylic has a UL94HB flammability rating and hard anti
scratch, chemical resistant coatings can be applied to
the surface as an optical flat or as anti-glare.
Fine Wire Meshes provide the highest level of

shielding while maintaining excellent optical properties.
Wires used as the EMI shield are stainless steel or
copper. The stainless steel mesh ranges from 50 wires
per inch up to 250, copper mesh 70, 100 and 145.
Wire diameters are 0.025mm or 0.056mm for stainless,
0.056mm for copper. The greater wire density gives
better shielding performance but light transmission
and optical clarity is degraded. The optimum wire
count to achieve good shielding and optical
characteristics is around 80-100 wires per inch.
The wire is plated and blackened to fuse the wire
crossovers ensuring consistent EMC performance and
the blackening reduces specular reflection from the
mesh, enhancing the optics. Wire meshes can cause
moir fringing on some displays. To eliminate this the
wire is orientated in the substrate at an angle to be
determined during the window design, this may from
11 to 45 degrees dependant on the display.
Polycarbonate has very high impact resistance, more

than 16 times that of Acrylic and 200 times more than
glass making it most suitable for rugged applications.
Whilst its light transmission is not as good as other
substrates at 85%, it has the advantage of having
UL94VO flammability rating over 2.4mm thickness.
Hard anti scratch, chemical resistant coatings can
be applied to the surface as an optical flat or as
anti-glare. Fine wire meshes can be fully laminated
between two layers.
Glass has a very durable surface and will withstand
high temperatures making it suitable for the application
of vapour coatings such as ITO (indium tin oxide) for
EMI shielding and/or anti reflection coatings that will
reduce first surface reflections to less than 0.5%.
Glass can be fully laminated with fine wire meshes
and circular polarizers when required.
Transparent Vapour Deposited Conductive Coatings

ITO (indium tin oxide) and Gold can be applied to the
substrates but do not provide as effective shielding as
the wire meshes. Their advantage is that optical clarity
is maintained and there is no degradation in resolution
or fringing that can be caused by fine wire meshes.
The coating can be applied in various thicknesses to
achieve a resistance of 5, 10 or 25 ohms/square.
ADC (Allyl Diglycol Carbonate), trade name CR39,

has a very hard surface hence its use as spectacle lenses.
ADC is normally cast and has good impact resistance
and is highly formable but is easily broken if scratched
or notched. ADC meets UL94HB flammability rating
but is the most expensive substrate.

Product Overview
EMI cable glands are manufactured in brass and consist of 4 parts.

The body, cap, locknut and the mesh olive. The cable entry gland
uses a wire mesh olive, which consists of knitted wire mesh over a
silicone core which when compressed by the cap being tightened to
the body provides circumferential pressure to both the cable and gland
body, giving excellent electrical conductivity between the two.
Application
The Cable Entry Gland provides an excellent EMP/RFI/EMI
shield for screened cable which pass through
enclosure walls.
Availability
Manufactured in a range of sizes to accommodate cables
with a diameter over the screen from 2mm up to 16mm
A round or threaded hole is required to mount the gland.
(The gland can also be soldered into the enclosure wall).
Using a heat shrink boot (not supplied) can also provide
a degree of environmental sealing.
Kemtron manufacture these glands as a standard part,
however if you require something slightly different
or with a plated finish we are able to accommodate
requests subject to minimum quantities.

Product Overview
Custom designed shielding cans are manufactured by photo etching or

pressing thin metal sheet, which is then folded and soldered or tabbed
to form the shielding can. Cans can have a removable or a fixed integral lid
and they are then mounted on a PCB covering single or multiple
components to provide excellent EMI/RFI shielding.
Application
PC board screening cans present an effective solution
to the isolation of board level components and can
provide individual or multi-cavity shielding over
components on a PCB.
Availability
Bespoke cans can be produced quickly to suit particular
applications and provide a more effective solution than
a standard product.
Photo Etching is a flexible process offering a cost
effective product with quick turn round times.
Cans be supplied flat for self folding with etched fold
lines or ready folded.
Stamping and pressing is a more expensive process due
to tooling costs but offers high volume capability with
low unit costs and are only available ready folded
Cans be produced with solid tops or with removable
fingered lids for component access.
Cans can be supplied to suit through hole or surface
mount assembly.
Internal dividers can be added to most designs.

plating finishes.
Factors such as size, volume, assembly technique,
accessibility of components etc will dictate the
design suited to a particular application but careful
consideration should be given when choosing the
required material:
Low frequency applications such as transformers,
coils etc should use a high permeability material
such as steel or nickel iron.
High frequency applications such as microprocessors,
fast switching devices, switched mode power supplies
should use non-ferrous materials.
Kemtron has considerable experience in the design,
manufacture and testing of a wide range of shielding
products and is able to help customers find solutions
to their shielding requirements.
Specifications
As cans are custom designed please contact our sales
department to discuss your requirements. We will need
a drawing or specification giving overall dimensions,
type of material, plating, through hole/surface mount
configurations, quantity, tolerances, packaging and any
special requirements.

Product Overview
Kemtron distribute a large range of ferrites for EMI suppression. Our

warehouse facility has a large range of cable and surface mount products
which are generally available for same day despatch. Non stocked parts can
also be obtained in a few working days.
Kemtron distributes from world leading producers of ferrite and related materials used in the
electronics, copier, telecomms, military and automotive industries. Nickel zinc ferrite parts are
used extensively in the suppression of electromagnetic interference commonly known as EMI
Ferrite, materials exhibit magnetic properties which are dependent on the frequency at which
they are excited. In electronic applications the relation of the magnetic loss to frequency is
utilized to attenuate interference frequencies where the materials losses are high, yet pass
the lower bands where data is carried.
The Kemtron range of EMI ferrite is split into two main areas:
Cable ferrites, comprising solid and split core versions for use on round and ribbon type
cables. Broadband & High Frequency versions are now available for round and
cylindrical cores.
Board Mount Products, comprising chip ferrites, common mode chokes, multi-turn devices
etc, many available in both surface mount and through hole board versions.
The ranges are extensive and continually being updated, please visit our web site to view the
range or contact our sales office to discuss your requirements.

Environmental Sealing
Overview
Product Overview
Kemtron offers a wide range of products designed for all areas of

environmental sealing for electronic instruments, cabinets and enclosures
from flat gaskets, extrusions, O rings and form in place. We are able to
offer materials that have wide temperature ratings, long operational life, IP
sealing, resistance to fluids and NBC chemicals, UL94 listings for fire
retardancy, low toxicity products etc, many available from stock.
Kemtron can offer precision cutting, slitting, kiss-cutting, extrusions,
mouldings, form in place dispensing direct to surfaces and a comprehensive
range of vulcanized silicone O rings. Kemtron has full facilities available to
self-adhesive back materials, provide integral compression stops or collars
to prevent gasket damage and fabrication of gaskets, etc.
133
Flat Gaskets
Product Overview
Kemtron has the capability to produce many designs and styles of flat
gaskets. We have a versatile process of manufacture, which is ideally suited
for development and pre-production through to full production volumes.
Modern tooling, enable complex shapes to be produced whilst maintaining
tight, repeatable tolerances. Single or multipart tool configurations allow
for efficient, economical production techniques.
Flat gaskets are produced from sheet while larger gaskets can be cut from fabricated
picture frames.
This option has the advantage of saving material and allows larger gaskets to be produced
economically. This is facilitated by our in-house tool making and silicone moulding facilities.
Fabricated frames use either extruded or moulded flat section that is joined by vulcanizing
the polymer.
This process has allowed Kemtron to produce gaskets up to 2 meters long, with the same
mechanical integrity as is found in a single part gasket cut from sheet. This method of
manufacture often offers cost savings over cutting from sheet with subsequent loss of waste
material. During this process compression stops or collars can also be incorporated. This leads
to reduced hardware costs and negates the need for fixings to be torqued to prevent over
compression and damage to the gasket.
Our experience in laminating allows us to apply self-adhesive backing tape to even the most
difficult materials such as silicone, regardless of quantities. We use a range of high performance
tapes suitable for all conditions.
Kemtron has in house slitting capability, which allows us to convert sheet or log materials into
strip or coils. This flexible technique with short lead times allows materials to be supplied to
exact customer requirements with low minimum order quantities.

Easily assembled using the self-adhesive backing
option. (Self-adhesive backing is an assembly aid only).
A broad range of sizes available.
A large range of materials to suit many
climatic conditions.
Large fabricated gaskets can be produced
economically.
UL flame retardant approved materials
are also available.
Compression 3
It is important that this material is not overcompressed. If the design of the equipment
does not allow for any mechanical method of
preventing over-compression, the gasket should be
fitted with built-in compression limiters, either metal
stops fitted to the gasket, or metal collars fitted into
each fixing hole.
When specifying die cut gaskets minimum material
width should not be less than 2mm or at least the
material thickness in any part of the gasket. If this
cannot be achieved around fixing holes consider using
a slot. Particular attention is required if specifying
compression collars in holes.

Form-in-Place
Product Overview
Kemtron Form-in-Place (FIP) Elastomer compounds are directly dispensed

onto component hardware or enclosure via a pressurised fluid dispensing
system on a numerically controlled XYZ table to form a gasket for dust and
moisture sealing. The dispensing machine deposits the gasket by following
a pre-determined CNC path to provide accuracy and repeatability.
The process advantages are:
Component provides an integrated
environmental gasket.
Assembly time is reduced as gasket is included
on component.
Rapid prototyping.
Low setup costs.
Smaller gasket land required.
No material waste.
Can be applied to metal and plastic components.
Applications
Suited to applications where small, intricate gasket
profiles are required, such as on multi-compartment
labyrinth housings with minimum gasket land area
where traditional larger types of gasket are not suitable.
This process also negates the assembly costs associated
with traditional gaskets as the Form-in-Place gasket
becomes an integral part of the housing or enclosure.
The process is suitable for depositing on both metal and
metallised plastic components/housing.
The gasket height can be specified between 0.4mm to
2.0mm, gasket width will typically be 1.5x the gasket
height.
Recommended gasket compression is between 20%
and 30%. Over-compression can damage the gasket
and as compression stops cannot be incorporated
into the gasket they should be designed into the
component hardware.
Gasket path for the deposition can be determined from
a sample part, drawings or CAD files.
To meet the varying demands of customer requirements
Kemtron has developed its own CNC Form-in-Place
dispenser. FIP gasketing work has become a regular
feature of our production work and we are able to
provide a reliable, accurate and quick response to even
high volume orders.
Kemtron has a large range of compounds suitable for
many climatic conditions. Wide temperature range,
chemical resistance & fire retardant grades.
Availability
Kemtron can dispense FIP gaskets directly onto the
customers free issue hardware or can procure the
component hardware thereby reducing the customers
supply base.

The above cross sectional area groove sizes allow for the
free movement of the gasket when being compressed.
This method of calculation ensures that the volume of
the gasket does not exceed that of the groove when
fully compressed, resulting in groove overfill. This also
minimises the amount of compression force required to
achieve a good seal.
It is important to note that when designing in a gasket,
that the principles of O ring design for pressure sealing
do not apply. The groove depth dimension is the most
important, as it is this that limits the gasket compression.
The groove width has no maximum dimension and is
only there for gasket location purposes. Tighter groove
dimensions using volume calculations may be employed
to enhance environmental sealing. However this will
increase the compression forces required.
The above calculations are based on reducing the depth
of the groove by a given compression % and increasing
the width by the same amount less 5% eg. 20%
reduction in depth 15% increase in width.
When choosing a tube section as a gasket it is
recommended that consideration be given to the lower
compression forces, making sure that there is enough
resilience in the gasket to ensure a good seal. In these
cases it is sometimes better to use the volume groove
size calculation, with the groove side walls offering
support for the tube. Because there are so many
variables with tube cross sections it is difficult to give
precise information on this subject. Kemtron are able to
supply samples for evaluation purposes.

The minimum internal bend radius of a solid cord gasket is 1.5 x cross
section of cord.
Casting With Tube Gasket
The minimum internal bend radius of a tube gasket where the id of the
tube is no greater than 30% of the cross section is 2.5 x cross section of
tube.
