Abstract
An electromagnetic shielding gasket assembly includes a coil spring for blocking the propagation of electromagnetic waves therepast. The coil spring includes individal coils interconnected with one another and disposed in a canted relationship with a centerline of the coil spring and cause the coil spring to block the propagation of electromagnetic waves. The individual coils may be interconnected in a manner forming a continuous circular spring which may be disposed in a groove including a wedge-shaped portion for deflecting the individual coils and causing the individual coils to abutt at an inside diameter of the continuous circular spring.
