O-Rings from Leader Tech

O-Rings from Leader Tech | In Compliance Magazine

What do alligators and electrically conductive O-rings have in common? The short answer is that they both come in a lot of different sizes and they share a common home at Leader Tech’s Global EMI Shielding Headquarters in Tampa, Florida.

In addition to having a resident alligator on their campus, Leader Tech manufactures a full line of high-performance, MIL-SPEC approved molded O-ring gaskets with ID’s ranging from 0.145” to 3.987” and bonded O-rings up to 8-feet in diameter.  These conductive gaskets are most commonly used to prevent electromagnetic and radio frequency interference from escaping an electronic enclosure while protecting the same device from damaging environmental conditions such as high humidity and water.

Mastering High Voltage: The Importance of Accurate Test Equipment

This whitepaper underscores that precise calibration of high-voltage test gear — especially when measuring 1 kV–150 kV systems — is essential for safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance. It details measurement techniques (voltage dividers, step-down transformers, etc.), the impact of environmental and connection factors on accuracy, and why traceable calibration (e.g. to NIST / A2LA) is a must to ensure consistent, reliable results.

As the only company in the world that is approved to manufacture all 12 MIL-SPEC conductive elastomer formulations, customers can rely on the experienced engineering team at Leader Tech to deliver a tailored solution for virtually any electronic gasketing application.
