Insulators for Electronics
Designs can incorporate additional layers of insulation,
pressure sensitive adhesives, and conductive mediums according
to your specifications.
Shielding requirements often enclose PC boards or line the
inside of an enclosure, either completely or partially. Parts
can be scored to allow creasing and/or include perforations to
allow for easy bending and installation.
