Abstract

An electromagnetic-shielding gasket of the present invention shields electronic components from electromagnetic waves by covering a surface of a resilient core with metal mesh and inserting the core into a joint of a conductive housing which contains electronic components. The core comprises an installing portion which is fixed to the joint of the conductive housing. A segregating portion or area separates the metal mesh from the surface of the core in the corner portions so that when the core elastically deforms greatly during insertion or use of the gasket, the metal mesh does not break as the core presses and pulls the metal mesh.
