Applications:
Outdoor electronic enclosures that require an easy to assemble gasket, environment sealing with no groove, and low closure-force when used with thin sheet metal or plastic covers and or minimal latches, hinges or bolts
Markets:
• Outdoor electronic enclosures, Outdoor cable junction boxes
• Outdoor fiber optic junction boxes, outdoor pole or building mounted telephone Equipment
Enclosures
• Indoor electronic and electrical enclosures
• Semiconductor Process Door sealing
• Telecommunication enclosures
• Other Low-Closure-Force, “No-Groove”, applications.
Solution:
Many electronic and telecommunications enclosure manufacturers require low-closure-force, easy to assemble gaskets and seals. Parker’s new pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) backed hollow-D Extrusion and advanced four corner slicing technology provides excellent environmental/dust sealing with very low-closure-force by utilizing a hollow cross section seal profile.
Key Features, Benefits, Advantages:
• PSA attachment and precision corner splicing technology provides “no groove” flat panel seals.
• Hollow-D cross section offers low-closure-force and high clearance gap tolerance
• Superior compression set compared to conventional dispensed, molded, or extruded foam
seals.
• Sealing Grade materials provide superior service
• Hollow-D profiles can be cut and spliced to exact requirements with minimal-to-zero tooling
cost
• Low cost, non standard sealing solution
• Tight cross-sectional tolerances held on extruded profiles
• Reduces overall customers costs by elimination of seal retainer groves due to PSA backing.
• Offers potential reduction of bolts/latches/hinges required due to low-closure-force hollow
profile
• Hollow-D PSA-backed extrusions can be supplied in long lengths, spliced rings or four corner
spliced gaskets as shown in the picture.
