Abstract
A magnetic gasket that fastens together components in an electronic device. An adhesive, such as a pressure sensitive adhesive, is attached to a magnetic strip. An electrically conductive gasket, such as a soft foam core with a conductive fabric wrap, is also attached to the magnetic strip. The adhesive attaches the magnetic gasket to one component, and the magnetic strip holds another metallic component firmly in place. This compresses the electrically conductive gasket, filling the gap between the components with an electrical connection that reduces EMI.
