Thin, Flexible, Microwave Absorber
PPG C-RAM® FLX is a series of thin, flexible, narrow banded, magnetically loaded sheet absorber tuned to a specific frequency.
PPG C-RAM FLX provides reflectivity of -20 dB or less of the normal incident energy at the design frequency.
Standard sheet size is 12” x 12” (305 mm x 305 mm).
Each grade is only available in the thickness listed in the above table.
PPG C-RAM FLX can be supplied in other sizes or per customer specified configurations upon request.
PPG C-RAM FLX can be supplied with a peel-and-stick pressure sensitive adhesive backing, specify by adding a/PSA suffix to the part name. It is also available with a metal foil backing; specify by adding a /ML suffix.
As a standard, the PPG C-RAM FLX base material is silicone, but it can also be supplied in a urethane or neoprene base version. Specify a urethane sheet as FLX-U, neoprene as FLX-N. FLX without a suffix designates silicone as a default. See application note available online for more info on properties and benefits of each type of elastomer.
Specify the part as PPG C-RAM FLX-xx, where xx is the nominal resonant frequency.
