EMI Shielding Foil and Fabric Tape with Conductive Adhesive
Parker Chomerics CHO-FOIL® metal foil tapes offer an economical solution for applications demanding excellent electrical conductivity across substrates. These tapes provide a low impedance connection between braided cable shields and metal connector backshells in molded cables. The highly conductive pressure-sensitive acrylic adhesive (PSA) eliminates the need for soldering, facilitating effective shielded cable assemblies. The uniform distribution of unique, oxidation-resistant conductive particles in the PSA ensures very low resistance through the tape.
Wrapping a cable assembly with CHO-FOIL tape, using a slight overlap, creates an efficient prototype cable shielding system. EMI shielded room seams and other shielded test enclosure setups can be easily sealed with CHO-FOIL tape to ensure electrical continuity and enhanced shielding effectiveness. The double-sided conductive adhesive option ensures leak-free seams. CHO-FOIL tape provides electrically conductive mating flanges and corrosion-resistant grounding areas.
For applications requiring lighter weight and more flexible electrically conductive tape, CHO-FAB™ fabric tape is an excellent alternative. It offers superior shielding and corrosion resistance, is highly conformable, strong, lightweight, and lacks the sharp edges found in metal foil tapes, making it ideal for shielded cables.
