Laird Performance Materials SoftZorb GDS

Laird Performance Materials SoftZorb GDS are low deflection force gap fillers that offer easier deflection for use in cavities. This is helpful whenever a lid may potentially contact with and compress the absorber causing possible damage to other components. These force gap fillers feature high power performance, high magnetic loss, and low deflection force that enables conformability for optimum cavity fill. The SoftZorb GDS has the ability to more thoroughly fill the cavity that greatly increases absorber performance by limiting leakage around the absorber. These force gap fillers are designed for the frequency range from 18GHz to 35GHz. Typical applications include datacom/telecom, industrial, consumer, and automotive.
