GORE-SHIELD® GS5200 EMI Gaskets


GORE-SHIELD® GS5200 EMI Gaskets

GORE-SHIELD® GS5200 EMI Gaskets consist of highly conductive, adhesive backed, EMI gasketing material that is ideally suited for wireless infrastructure and telecommunications applications. They can be supplied in die-cut part forms or in slit width rolls. Slit width material is ideal for manual “peel and stick” EMI gasketing applications.



GORE-SHIELD® GS5200 EMI Gaskets consist of a nickel-filled PTFE matrix, a conductive pressure sensitive adhesive, and a PET carrier film.

Features and Benefits

  • Excellent shielding effectiveness
  • Excellent reliability through Accelerated Life Testing (ALT)
  • Flame retardant (UL-94 V-0)
  • Broad temperature range (–45°C – 120°C)
  • Years of successful use worldwide

Applications

When optimizing a gasket shielding solution, consider the housing design as well as the EMI gasket performance. Important considerations in the housing design include flatness, surface roughness, material type, rigidity, contact area, tolerance take-up, conductivity, fastener type, and fastener locations. Key factors in an EMI gasket include softness, tolerance take-up, conductivity (DC resistance), and shielding effectiveness both before and after Accelerated Life Testing (ALT).
