LAIRD VY-81
Harmonization Code : 3215907090 | Ink, whether or not concentrated or solid (excl. printing ink, printer/copier ink cartridges incorporating mechanical or electrical components, and solid ink in engineered shapes for printers/copiers)
Main features
- 80 to 90 dB EMI/RF Shielding
- Non-Hardening High-Tack Shielding Compound
- Conventional Caulking-Equipment Application
Product Description
Laird Eccoshield® VY-81 is a single-component, electrically conductive, non-hardening caulking compound and sealer filled with metallic particles. It is designed for EMI/RF protection on structures, cabinets, conduits, modules and components where joints, seams, threads and cracks can create leakage paths. Published typical data include 80–90 dB shielding effectiveness, 0.01 Ohm-cm volume resistivity, 1.80 g/cc density and a service-temperature range of −54 to 205°C (−65 to 400°F). The high-tack, non-hardening formulation is intended to continue functioning under vibration and displacement caused by temperature changes. It can be applied using conventional caulking equipment, syringes, spatulas or caulking guns. Application performance should be confirmed in the intended enclosure and joint design.
Key features
- Typical shielding effectiveness: Published data report 80–90 dB for EMI/RF leakage control.
- Non-hardening under movement: High tack supports continued function under vibration and temperature-driven displacement.
- Bead coverage: Approximately 32 m (105 ft) of 3 mm diameter bead per pound of material.
Applications / Suitable for
- EMI/RF shielding of structures, cabinets and enclosure seams
- Conductive sealing of conduits, modules and components
- Plugging joints, seams, threads, cracks and other RF leakage paths
