Application

The affordable cost and superior shielding of this gasket makes it an excellent choice for high end
commercial applications. 4

MATERIAL
Spiral: Tin-plated stainless steel (RoHS compliance).

SHIELDING PERFORMANCE
These gaskets can offer shielding quality beyond 150 dB at frequencies between 100 kHz and 1 GHz.
The shielding quality may vary depending on the specific application.

COMPRESSION FORCE
Optimal compression of the gasket is 25% of the diameter of the spiral.
The compression forces given are approximate:
Standard Force: 5.5 kg/cm
Moderate Force : 1.8 kg/cm
Low Force: 0.3 kg/cm

Available options

CUSTOM SIZES
We can manufacture cord gaskets with all sizes of diameters, from 0.86mm up to approximately 38mm.
There is no additional cost for a specialized diameter. However, for large cords, the length of the gasket
available is smaller.

PLATING
IW : RoHS compliant tin plating (Example : GTS-IWNL-239 NC).

This gasket is not recommended for high
Standard IWNI humidity or salt fog applications because the
edges of the gaskets are not plated. If high

CORD INSERT

To keep costs low, we recommend you omit the cord usually included in the spiral. However, if over-compression of
the gasket is a concern or problem, remove the “NC” from the part number on the moderate and low force series
gaskets.

Example : GTS-IWNL-239 NC will include cord GTS-IWNL-239.
All Standard Force gaskets come without cord (no NC required).
