**COMPRESSION-DEFLECTION** 

**SOFT-SHIELD 2000** Series gaskets consist of silver-plated nylon yarn knitted as the outer layer over a highly compressible, thermoplastic EPDM foam core. Through a special treatment process, the yarn jacket is secured to the core.  This self-terminating outer layer eliminates the need for secondary termination efforts and metal particle debris associated with the cut ends of common wire mesh gaskets. 

The low closure force characteristic of SOFTSHIELD 2000 Series gaskets allows enclosures to be designed with fewer fasteners or thinner panels. The knitted conductive layer provides excellent EMI shielding in the 20 MHz to 10 GHz range. 

**Configurations:** Standard SOFT-SHIELD 2000 Series gaskets include both rectangular and “D” cross sections. Gaskets are provided in bulk on spools or cut to custom lengths.  For attachment to flanges or other mounting surfaces, these gaskets are available with pressure-sensitive adhesive for quick, efficient application. An extended PSA liner is available to ease paper removal. Parts can be provided kiss-cut on sheets for low cost gasket installation.
