Magnetic Shielding Belt Yshield Yshield MCF5

• MCF5 is a magnetic shielding film made from an amorphous cobalt alloy for shielding of low-frequency alternating magnetic fields. Also shields low-frequency electric alternating fields (LF) and high-frequency fields (HF).
• Because MCF5 has a width of only 5 cm, its recommended for shielding smaller areas, e.g. in electronic applications or for cables. Not recommended for magnets !!!

• MCF5 stays flexible but hard even at small bending radio. The attenuation remains constant even at high mechanical stress. MCF5 can easily be cut with scissors.
• Due to the conductive surface this material can be contacted and grounded easy to shield low frequency (LF) electric fields.
• The shielding attenuations are regularly tested in our own laboratory, HF due to ASTM D4935-10, the LF magnetic field due to ASTM A698/A698M-07. You find the test report above.

Warning !!: The cutting edges are sharp as a knife! Best use our plastic scraper FVR10 to press it on the adhesive tapes or into the glue, this is the safe way to keep your fingers! There is no self ashesive version available. However, bonding is easily possible: Please use a double sided adhesive tape e.g. Carpet adhesive tape with 50 mm width or a wider double-sided adhesive tape. Otherwise a commercial surface contact adhesive can be used (e.g. UHU, PATTEX).
