1200 serie, metal knit gasket

The 1200 metal knit EMI/RFI gasket serie EMC gaskets consist of a layer of knitted electrically conductive metal wires over a low-closure-force rubber or elastomer core. For heavy duty applications like EMP or high temperatures a full metal version is available. Metal knit EMI/RFI gasket is sometimes combined with an environmental seal to provide IP rating, depending on the materials used.

Knitted wire mesh gaskets 1200 serie provide a cost effective solution to high shielding performance applications in the magnetic and electrical fields including EMP. Gaskets can be either all metal knitted mesh or knitted metal mesh over an elastomer core to allow recovery after compression.

For high frequency shielding, foil-based gaskets like Amucor Shield 6800 will perform better, because of their much larger contact surface. Please take a look at the image below to understand.
