DESCRIPTION

Fiberglass reinforced silicone sheeting is typically used for gaskets or seals requiring a resilient, non porous sheet material suitable for operating temperatures from -100 to 500F but is not limited to such applications.

The material is resistant to deterioration by weathering and engine oil and remains flexible over the temperature range noted. Fiberglass reinforced silicone sheet is available in many different thicknesses.

The fiberglass is centered between the 2 layers of silicone that gives the material dimensional stability and higher tensile strength.

3M™ XYZ-Axis Electrically Conductive Adhesive Transfer Tape 9719 is a silicone adhesive isotropically conductive pressure sensitive tape.

Tape 9719 conducts electricity through the thickness (Z-axis) and in the plane of the adhesive (X, Y planes) and is suitable for low surface energy (LSE*) EMI/RFI shield and EMI/RFI gasket attachment to metal surfaces. The tape consists of a high performance, low surface energy 3M adhesive loaded with conductive fibers.

The result is a double-sided tape providing both good adhesion and good electrical performance. The conductive fibers in tape 9719 also provide improved handling characteristics.

XYZ-Axis Electrically Conductive tape 9719 is suitable for attaching Low Surface Energy (LSE) EMI shields to electronic and electrical devices where high temperature performance (up to 400°F [204°C]) is required.

Tape 9719 may be used with many types of foil laminate shields, to provide a customized shielding solution. This tape may also be used to attach conductive fabric/foam core EMI gaskets to electronic cabinetry. Tape 9719 may be applied in strips or die cut to specific shapes and sizes.

Compared to screws or other mechanical connectors, tape 9719 provides reduced assembly time and a solid bond line with no gaps that might result in EMI emission.
