Sealing and Shielding in One

We offer custom designed, EMI-shielded O-rings and seals for a variety of electronic applications, providing superior sealing and EMI suppression in one.

Today's electronic enclosures — from laptops and PDAs to portable medical devices and consumer electronics — require cost effective, high-performance EMI shielding.

Made with conductive, particle-filled elastomers, Apple Rubber's O-rings and seals provide high EMI shielding effectiveness in an environmental or pressure seal. The microscopic particles establish a conductive path within the elastomer to create a versatile seal for use in EMI suppression.

Particle fillers include silver, copper, nickel and graphite. Elastomers can be formulated in a range from .001 to .05 resistances in ohms centimeters.

Our EMI-shielded seals are designed to provide a conductive interface/seal for application in a variety of industries including:

  • Telecommunications
  • Military
  • Medical
  • Aerospace
  • Automotive
  • Consumer and industrial electronics

We offer seals utilizing commercial grade and military grade shielding elastomers and we can produce EMI-shielded seals in an unlimited variety of shapes and sizes. For more information on EMI-shielded seals, call us at 1-800-828-7745 or visit www.applerubber.com.
