Available from Scott Cables is ARACON® a braided EMI Shield product which is constructed from ultra-fine, highly flexible ARACON® fibers designed to optimise shielding coverage and performance.

ARACON® fibers combine the electrical performance of a metal outer layer with the lightweight strength and flexibility of DuPont™ Kevlar®. This powerful combination creates a textile-like material ideal for EMI shielding in cables and harnesses—especially in weight-sensitive environments like aerospace, defence, commercial space and advanced electronics.

Features and Benefits include

  • Reduce weight by up to 80% compared to traditional copper braid
  • Built for flexibility and longevity – tested to withstand 50,000 + tic-toc flex cycles over 180C°
  • ARACON® fibre is a low-outgassing material with a broad operating temperature range and resistance to fluid immersion,
  • Engineered for performance—combines Kevlar® strength with silver and nickel coating for conductivity, corrosion resistance, and solderability
  • Ideal for aerospace, commercial space and defence systems where weight, durability, and EMI control are mission critical
  • Blended ARACON® EMI shields have been qualified for lightning strike protection
