The XB Series 0.060″ thick RF absorber material is an iron-loaded silicone elastomer optimized for the X band (8.0 to 12.0 GHz). Designed for superior cavity resonance reduction, the XB Series targets the frequency range commonly encountered in maritime radar, satellite downlink, and high-frequency test and measurement systems.

At 0.060″ thick, this is the thinner of two standard XB Series options, offering the same X-band frequency coverage as the 0.072″ in a slimmer profile for enclosures with tighter clearance. For applications requiring a non-silicone alternative, consider the US Series acrylic elastomer.
