Parker Chomerics SOFT-SHIELD® 3700 series high durability silicone foam core gaskets are wrapped in a nickel-plated copper polyester rip stop fabric and are ideal for low compression force, electronic enclosure sealing applications where elevated temperature ranges (up to 125°C) are a concern.

SOFT-SHIELD® 3700 will not require expensive tooling, virtually eliminating supply startup costs. The unite fabric wrap resists oxidation, proving a reliable and long term solution for EMI shielding and electrical grounding. Applications for SOFT-SHIELD® 3700 include automotive, military, and information technology markets that often encounter high temperature environments. It is offered in square and rectangular cross sections and with optional pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA).
