DESCRIPTION: SHIELD WRAP wire mesh EMI/EMP shielding tape is produced as a two-ply flattened cylinder of varying widths, loop spacings, wire sizes and metals. SHIELD WRAP mesh is designed to wrap easily (50% overlap recommended) around cables and harnesses, and will reduce corona discharge in addition to providing EMI shielding. It has excellent flexibility and conforms easily to irregular and complex surfaces. Under rising temperatures, the wire’s knitted loops enlarge into each other instead of bulging away from wrap ped surfaces, as do straight wires of woven mesh. Although not intended as a substitute for braided grounding straps, SHIELD WRAP mesh becomes especially useful for grounding when considerable flexibility is required
