Introduction

GETELEC offers and effective solution to the problems of corrosion
encountered with the use of conductive seals, when they are in contact with
different electrolytes such as salt fog or acid. These gaskets are water and
pressure resistant.

Seals for these applications are bi-material, as they are made of a conductive
silicone and an sealing silicone bonded together by co-extrusion into one
seal.

And in fact, by separating the microwave shielding and environmental sealing
functions, the seal gains considerably in resistance to extreme environments,
in which single component conductive seals would have much shorter
lifespans.

In this way, bi-material gaskets provide you with microwave shielding and
environmental sealing in just one groove, or in other words, gains as regards
congestion in your equipment and also regarding the machining of your part.

Our control of silicone mixes enables us to offer our customers a wide
choice in terms of electromagnetic performance, hardness and hydrocarbon
resistance etc.

These materials are available as extruded seals, moulded seals or cut lengths.

This method is also available as equipment housing covers by direct
vulcanization in our workshops.
