We have recently started using a spiral gasket on the edges of our VME front panels. I assume the Spira gaskets are the same or similar. If so, they are working MUCH better than the fingers we replaced. Durability is better, insertion resistance lower and in our case we have been able to mix and match with no apparent degradation.

I have recommended their POSSIBLE use to one of my clients for sealing around some single-board computer VME cards; however, I have not directly evaluated the performance of Spira gaskets. Their literature makes great claims (up to 130 dB SE out to 1 GHz), but has any of our readers personally evaluated their effectiveness?
