Parker Chomerics CHO-SEAL® electrically conductive elastomer gaskets are the ultimate solution for corrosion resistance, environmental sealing, and EMI shielding. These gaskets offer high reliability across a wide range of applications and are available in various forms, including molded sheets and extruded strips.
With flexible options for part complexity and sealing needs, they cater to both high-performance and cost-effective solutions.
Features & Benefits
- Reliable Over the Life of the Equipment: Ensures consistent performance throughout the product’s lifespan.
- EMI Shield and Environmental Seal: Provides dual functionality for electromagnetic interference shielding and environmental protection.
- Resistant to Compression Set: Maintains shape and sealing ability even under long-term stress.
- Low Closure Force Accommodation: Works efficiently with minimal force applied to create a reliable seal.
Potential Applications & Industries
The flexibility of these gaskets and their ability to accommodate low closure force make them perfect for industrial, automotive, and telecommunications applications. Originally used for critical aerospace and defense applications, they’re now a go-to choice for consumer electronics, automotive, telecommunications, medical devices, and more. Whether used in military systems or medical devices, these gaskets help ensure protection from environmental factors and electromagnetic interference.
Industries such as aerospace, military, communication & IT, and electronics depend on the reliability of conductive elastomer gaskets. These gaskets provide essential performance in environments requiring consistent protection from corrosion, EMI, and external elements. They are also widely used in transportation, fluid power, and battery applications, where robust sealing is critical.
Design Specifics & How The Product Works
Parker Chomerics conductive elastomer gaskets are available in multiple configurations, including molded O-rings, D-rings, waveguide gaskets, connector gaskets, and co-extruded gaskets. They come in molded sheets or parts, which offer flexibility in terms of part complexity and detail. For applications requiring continuous seals, extruded strips or cord stock provide an efficient and versatile solution.
What Makes Electrically Conductive Elastomer Gaskets So Effective?
