Parker Chomerics SOFT-SHIELD® 4850 series multiplanar, conductive, Z axis foam consist of silver-plated fibers embedded into low density open cell urethane foam and provide stable electrical performance as well as superb z-axis conductivity with extremely short ground paths. The optimized conductive fiber construction allows for exceptional physical and mechanical properties. Manufactured in rolls, SOFT-SHIELD® 4850 can be easily die cut or slit into rectangular/square strip gasket seals.

SOFT-SHIELD® 4850-STRIP consists of SOFT-SHIELD® 4850 in pre-cut strips that are ready to apply and ideal for quick install applications.
