TechMESH Tape for EMI and RFI Shielding
TechMESH Tape is a flexible conductive shielding solution designed to provide effective EMI and RFI protection for cables, wire harnesses, connectors, and electronic assemblies. Manufactured from conductive knitted wire mesh, these tape helps maintain electrical continuity while reducing electromagnetic interference in demanding electronic environments.
Unlike rigid shielding materials, these tape easily conforms to irregular surfaces and cable contours. This flexibility makes installation simple while ensuring reliable contact throughout the application. As a result, engineers frequently use TechMESH Tape in aerospace, military, telecommunications, industrial electronics, and other EMI-sensitive systems.
Conductive Knitted Wire Mesh Construction
TechMESH Tape is constructed using double-layered conductive knitted wire mesh. This design creates multiple conductive contact points that help improve grounding and shielding performance. In addition, the open mesh structure allows the tape to wrap tightly around cables and assemblies without significantly increasing bulk or weight.
Available material options include tin-plated copper clad steel and Monel wire, allowing engineers to select the most suitable material for their environmental and performance requirements.
Applications for TechMESH Tape
TechMESH Tape is commonly used for:
- EMI shielding of cable assemblies
- RFI suppression in electronic equipment
- Grounding applications
- Shielding connectors and wire harnesses
- Aerospace and defense electronics
- Telecommunications equipment
- Industrial control systems
The tape can be wrapped directly around cables and assemblies after installation, making it particularly useful when shielding must be added during final assembly or retrofit projects.
