Aluweave - versatile gaskets

Aluweave is used for connector gaskets and other 'thin' gasket applications. If aluminium is unsuitable because of galvanic compatibility or shielding effectiveness, the expanded Monel based GX series may be more appropriate.

Aluweave gaskets provide good 'point contact' where each crossover occurs, while the rubber filler ensures excellent environmental sealing. Aluweave, like nearly all other conductive gasket materials, should not be fixed with a conductive or pressure sensitive adhesive and should be fixed as a friction fit utilising the fixing screws to position the gasket before tightening.

This material is available in two thicknesses - 0.4mm and 0.5mm ± 0.1mm - and is generally supplied as pre-cut gaskets constructed to the customers specific requirements but can also be supplied in sheets.

Other products from this member

Conductive silicone

Our E Range gaskets are constructed from silicone containing metal powder fillers which combine to produce high levels of attenuation with excellent environmental shielding and a high level of conductivity.

Twinstrip knitted or cored mesh gaskets

Twinstrip is a combination of knitted or cored mesh gasket with a non-conductive environmental seal. The wire mesh types used are Monel, Aluminium, TCS and Stainless Steel and the permutations of wire and elastomer combinations are almost endless providing a wide range of environmental, water, dust and pressure seals.

Edge bonded shielded windows

A low cost range of windows offering the same high level of EMI shielding performace as our range of fully laminated windows (WF Series) but with edge lamination only.

Knitted mesh with carrier

Our KM series gasket strip and frame materials consist of a slotted aluminium extrusion carrier into which a solid or elastomer cored knitted mesh gasket is clamped. These ready-to-fit, semi-rigid gasketing profiles help to avoid the problems often encountered when fitting adhesive-backed or plain mesh gaskets.

Monex - expanded monel foil

Monex is expanded Monel foil filled with silicone rubber. The exposed foil surface provides excellent conductivity combined with good corrosion resistance. Monex is also 'thin' gasket medium, similar to Aluweave, and is particularly suitable for connector or waveguide gaskets where a pressure seal and EMI shield is required.

Conductive adhesive

The one-part conductive particle filled room temperature curing silicone rubber adhesives is available using standard silicone and flurosilicone base compounds combined with a selection of particle fillers to produce a readily extrudable paste which self-cures when exposed to atmospheric moisture.

Shielded windows

Fully laminated (WF Series) screened windows combine the physical strength and optical clarity of laminated glass or plastic with the shielding effectiveness of fine wire gauze.

Connector Gaskets

P & P Technology manufacture a wide range of connector gaskets, including precision diecut gaskets made from a selection of materials, both conductive and non-conductive. Gaskets can be tailor made to meet individual requirements.

High performance RFI vents & filter composites

P & P Technology's VP Series of honeycomb ventilation panels can be custom manufactured from steel, brass or stainless steel. When selecting the material, corrosion resistance relevant to the application environment should be considered along with the attenuation requirements.

Attenuation vents

P & P Technology's VH Series of lightweight aluminium honeycomb attenuatung ventilation panels comprise of forms of conductive airflow media retained within an aluminium extrusion. They are designed for use in racks and other forms of commercial enclosure.

Fully laminated windows

Fully laminated screened windows combine the physical strength and optical clarity of laminated glass or plastic with the shielding effectiveness of fine wire gauze.

Silshield - Oriented wires in silicone

Our S Range silicone rubbers combine excellent environmental protection with a high level of shielding effectiveness. These products incorporate a matrix of vertically oriented wires which pierce both flat faces of the elastomer and provide around 100 contact points per square centimetre.

Elastomer-cored knitted wire meshes

P & P Technology's KE Series elastomer-cored knitted wire meshes consist of two layers of knitted wire over a low-closing-force rubber or elastomer core and offer the same shielding effectiveness of all-mesh types.

Airfilters with dustfield

Our VF Series of RFI vents combine the benefits of an attenuation vent panel with the properties of a dustfilter in a single frame, unlike the VB Series which utilises separate units fixed together in-situ.

Vent/filter composites

P & P Technology's VB Series of EMC vents / filter assemblies are composites of the VH Series honeycomb attenuation vents and demountable dustfilter panels containing a demembraned polyurethene filter media.
