Abstract
An end clip for attachment to the ends of finite strips of mesh-clad RFI/EMI shielding strips. A clip attachment is formed of a thin strip of metal, such as stainless steel, with hook-like flanges at opposite ends for securement to the edge margins of a mounting strip member of U-shaped cross section. The clip passes over the top of and partially compresses the end extremity of a tubular mesh-clad core strip mounted on the U-shaped strip. The end clip not only improves the appearance of the shielding strip end, but prevents possible snagging of the exposed tube end during use. A pointed tab, pressed out of the clip material, penetrates the core strip and resists accidental removal of the clip.
