We have recently started using a spiral gasket on the edges of our VME
front panels. I assume the Spira gaskets are the same or similar. If so,
they are working MUCH better than the fingers we replaced. Durability is
better, insertion resistance lower and in our case we have been able to
mix and match with no apparent degradation.

Subject: Spira EMI Gaskets
I just caught Ed's comment on the use of Spira gaskets. I have
recommended
their POSSIBLE use to one of my clients for sealing around some
single-board
computer VME cards; however, I have not directly evaluated the
performance of
Spira gaskets. Their literature makes great claims (up to 130
dB SE out to 1
GHz), but has any of our readers personally evaluated their
effectiveness?
Thanks for your time,
