Compression and Deflection Data:
Product Data Sheet
Applications
Conductive Silicone should be used where there is a need for high broadband shielding with excellent moisture sealing. In order to assure electrical conductive and sealing reliability, recommended design compression is 10% – 15% of original height for sheets and strips and 12%-30% for hollow profiles.
