Die cut gaskets that are made of EMI/RFI silicones combine strong environmental resistance with proven levels of shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency (RFI) interference. As a gasket fabrication process, die cutting combines the advantages of speed and consistency with lower production costs and less material waste.Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) supplies EMI/RFI silicones and fluorosilicones for die cut gaskets as compression molded sheets and continuous [...]

Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) makes military and aerospace silicones that meet AMS, AA59588 (formerly ZZR-765), and MIL-DTL-25988 (sometimes called out as MIL-R-25988 on prints, or as AMS 25988) requirements. These non-conductive materials are supplied as ready-to-mold compounds and compression-molded sheet stock for applications that include reinforced silicone seals for aircraft engines and fan blades. SSP’s aerospace and military silicones are also used in reinforced molded seals [...]

Specialty Silicone Products (SSP) is announcing that SSP-2571-85, an 85-durometer shielding silicone filled with silver-copper particles, has been added to the Defense Logistic Agency’s (DLA) Qualified Product List (QPL) for MIL-DTL-83528, Type K. This electrically-conductive silicone provides proven shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and has also been independently tested for shielding effectiveness by DLS Electronics Systems, which also tested SSP-2571-85 for [...]

Specialty Silicone Products is hosting the second episode of “Silicone Sessions”, a series of videos produced by the organizers of Silicone Expo, the world’s first free-to-attend commercial tradeshow for the silicone industry. Dominic Testo, SSP’s Business Development Manager and a member of the Silicone Expo Advisory Board, explains why this upcoming event is generating so much excitement and how silicone has many diverse uses in everyday life. SSP is also celebrating a [...]
