D. CONDUCTIVE ELASTOMER
Consil -A
®
SILVER-ALUMINUM FILLED SILICONE ELASTOMER
U.S. Customary
[SI Metric]
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
CONSIL-A is a silicone or fluorosilicone elastomer
filled with silver-plated aluminum particles
designed to achieve maximum electrical conductivity. CONSIL-A provides high shielding effectiveness with minimal galvanic corrosion. Lighter in
weight than other high performance conductive
elastomers,
CONSIL-A provides an excellent moisture seal for
enclosure joints and seams. CONSIL-A is available in sheets, die-cut or molded gaskets, and
continuously extruded strips.
SPECIFICATIONS
MATERIAL DESCRIPTION
APPLICATION INFORMATION
The MILG-83528 certified compounds meet the
demanding requirements of many military and
aerospace systems, high frequency microwave
environments and wave guide connector gaskets.
EMP and TEMPEST requirements are ideal applications for CONSIL-A.
Recommended compression of CONSIL-A is 100
psi with deflection of 6% of original gasket height.
Tecknit Teckbond-A is a two part silicone adhesive recommended for splicing, joining and bonding of Consil-A gaskets to enclosures. The adhesive provides a flexible bond and resilient seal.
See 72-00236.
EMI SHIELDING PERFORMANCE
TECKNIT CONSIL-A Shielding Effectiveness has
been tested in accordance with MIL-G-83528,
Paragraph 4.6.12. Typical values are shown.
