CHO-FOIL EMI Shielding Tape
with Conductive Adhesive
(Copper, Aluminum or Tinned Copper)
CHO-FAB EMI Shielding
Fabric Tape with
Conductive Adhesive
Chomerics’ CHO-FOIL tapes are
an economical EMI shielding solution
for a variety of commercial uses.
The tapes are available in copper,
aluminum, or tinned copper foil
backed with Chomerics’ highly
conductive pressure-sensitive
adhesive*. Typical properties are
shown in Table 1 on the next page,
and reliability data appears in Table
4 on page 148. CHO-FOIL copper
tape is available with a non-conduc-
tive adhesive for applications requir-
ing surface conductivity only. An
embossed version of CHO-FOIL
copper tape is also available, for a
more attractive appearance up to 6
inches (152 mm) wide. Standard
length rolls and die-cut custom
shapes can be ordered.
Typical Applications for CHO-FOIL
and CHO-FAB EMI Shielding Tapes
s Provide a low impedance
connection between a braided
cable shield and the metal
connector backshell in molded
cables. An effective EMI shielded
assembly can be achieved
without soldering the tape to
the braid or backshell
s EMI radiation measurement
troubleshooting, using CHO-
FOIL tape to shield ventilation
slots or seam gaps
s Provide electrical continuity in
seams of EMI shielded rooms
and electronic enclosures
s Supply electrical contact to
surfaces that can’t be soldered
to, such as conductive plastic
or aluminum
s EMI shield for cables by
wrapping the tape around
the cable. An overlap is
recommended
s ESD shielding
s Provide corrosion-resistant
ground contact points
s Fabric tape available where
weight and flexibility are
important, such as for
wrapping cables
CHO-FAB tape is a corrosion
resistant nickel-plated cloth coated
with Chomerics’ highly conductive
pressure-sensitive adhesive*.
CHO-FAB tape is extremely strong
and lightweight, and has excellent
conformability/wrapability to enhance
shielding performance and appear-
ance. Use of corrosion resistant nickel-
plated cloth and Chomerics’ superior
metal-particle-filled conductive
adhesive technology produces a
tape used in a wide variety of EMI
shielding and grounding applications.
Typical properties are shown in Table
1 on the next page, and reliability
data appears in Table 4 on page 148.
Ordering Procedure
Refer to Tables 2 and 3. All CHO-
FOIL and CHO-FAB tapes are avail-
able in standard 36 yard (32.9 m)
rolls or die-cut custom configura-
tions. Call Chomerics’ Applications
Engineering Department for assis-
tance with a custom configuration.
