Leading the Drive for Electric Vehicle Sealing & Protection

Atlantic Gasket is leading the charge into the future with parts for electrical vehicle (EV) charging stations, sensor enclosures, and battery boxes.  EV production will continue to exponentially increase in the future, and we have the material and parts to help make that happen!

Our electrically-conductive silicones and fluorosilicones not only act as a seal and protect against environmental factors, but they also provide shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI).  These RFI and EMI shielding rubbers have the ability to withstand temperatures of upward of over 400°F, higher than an EV battery operation temperature.  They also have the ability to meet the MIL-G-83528/MIL-DTL-83528 specification, such as Type A, Type B, Type D, Type K, Type L, and Type M, in a wide variety of thicknesses (.010”, .020”, .032”, .062”, .125”, etc.).

The conductive fluorosilicones and silicones also have the ability to withstand fire and flame.  Some of Atlantic Gasket’s shielding rubbers contain silicones that conform to UL-94 V0 which allows them to help contain fire if needed which is instrumental with EV vehicle operation.

Atlantic Gasket has the capability to provide raw sheets and rolls in various thicknesses of RFI/EMI shielding silicones and fluorosilicones.  Our ability also includes the production of custom-cut parts and stripping of the conductive rubbers to our customer’s needs.  As electric vehicle production continues so will our capacity to guide customers in providing conductive silicone and fluorosilicone parts and material for it.

Atlantic Gasket Revamps Site with EMI/RFI Products

SSP-502-30 Roll Material (4)Atlantic Gasket continues to keep up with the growing demands of different markets, and this time, we’ve revamped our website with a new section for EMI (Electromagnetic Interference) and RFI (Radio Frequency Interference) shielding materials.  These silicone and fluorosilicone rubbers are filled with a variety of metallic fillers to allow them to be electrically conductive and protect sensitive electronic equipment and other products.  These fillers include Nickel-Aluminum, Nickel-Graphite, Silver-Aluminum, Silver-Copper, Silver-Glass, and Silver-Nickel.

 

 

IMG_5645EMI & RFI shielding gaskets are important in serving a range of industries, such as military, aerospace, automotive, medical, and more.  We can provide silicones and fluorosilicones that meet the MIL-G-83528/MIL-DTL-83528 specification and others that are QPL listed.  Our EMI/RFI materials come in a wide variety of thicknesses, durometers, sheet sizes, rolls, and colors to help suit your needs.  This variety allows us to provide a range of die-cut parts, waterjet-cut parts, stripping, roll goods, sheets, and more.

The EMI/RFI silicones and fluorosilicones not only protect against electromagnetic interference and radio frequency interference but also the typical environmental factors, such as silicone’s natural resistance to a large temperature range.  For harsh environments with solvents and fuels, fluorosilicone is the answer to your issues.  The combination of the rubber along with the internal metallic fillers allows these EMI/RFI shielding materials to be a fantastic option for protecting sensitive equipment for your next project!

New Increased Electrical Capacity at Atlantic Gasket!

 

Efficiency is something we take very seriously here.  We are always on the lookout for new opportunities to improve our productivity, and this particular advancement is sure to streamline our process.  We are increasing our electrical capacity by installing a larger state-of-the-art electric service, including primary switch gear and many internal panel and wiring upgrades.  This will position our facility for the addition of new manufacturing equipment.

We will also be re-locating some of our existing machinery to achieve a more efficient flow path of material from basic converting processes through to final parts cutting, fabrication, and packaging.  Providing our production team members with the tools to produce and package parts efficiently benefits them and ultimately the most important component of our business – our valued customers.

            We are investing in OUR business to better serve YOUR business!
