Abstract: The invention relates to an EMI gasket for mounting on a wall of a housing of an electrical appliance. The gasket includes a plurality of elements arranged in a row wherein two adjacent elements are interconnected by connection pieces. At least one of the elements includes a clamping section for clamping the device onto the housing and a shielding section to perform the shielding function. According to the invention, at least one element further includes a snapping member which serves as a barb for latching into a recess within the wall of the housing where the gasket is to be installed such that the gasket is locked on the wall thereby preventing unintentional movement of the gasket or even that the gasket is slipping off of the housing.
