ESD Static Dissipative Silicone Sponge Gasket

Description

The ESD Static Dissipative Silicone Sponge Gasket is a specialized sealing solution designed for electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive environments. Combining the inherent flexibility and compressibility of silicone sponge with controlled electrical conductivity, this gasket provides reliable EMI/RFI shielding and static dissipation while maintaining an effective environmental seal.

Unlike standard silicone foam, this material is engineered with static-dissipative properties to prevent electrostatic buildup that could damage sensitive electronic components.

Key Features

  • Static Dissipative Protection: Surface resistance typically between 10⁶ – 10⁹ ohms, safely dissipating static charge without creating an electrical short

  • High Compressibility: Sponge cellular structure allows for low closure force and excellent conformability to irregular surfaces

  • Wide Temperature Range: Functions reliably from -55°C to +200°C (-67°F to +392°F)

  • Resilience: Excellent compression set resistance ensures long-term sealing performance

  • Environmental Sealing: Provides protection against dust, moisture, and light particulate ingress (IP-rated options available)

  • Cleanroom Compatible: Low outgassing and non-contaminating; suitable for controlled environments

Typical Applications

  • Electronics Manufacturing: Sealing panels, doors, and access points in semiconductor fabrication equipment

  • ESD Workstations: Gasketing for ESD-safe enclosures, storage cabinets, and test fixtures

  • Control Panels & Enclosures: NEMA-rated boxes housing sensitive electronics

  • Medical Devices: Equipment requiring static control without conductive carbon black

  • Aerospace & Defense: Avionics enclosures and instrument housings

  • Battery Compartments: ESD-safe sealing for lithium battery assemblies
