A V-seal EMC gasket assembly is provided for implementing precise placement, conduction and retention, while eliminating the need for adhesives. A V-seal EMC gasket and a supporting member include cooperating notch and protrusion features for positioning and retaining the V-seal EMC gasket on the supporting member. A distal end of the V-seal EMC gasket is received and retained within angled stops formed in the supporting member. A retaining clip member holds the V-seal EMC gasket in contact engagement with the supporting member. The protrusion features of the supporting member are received through corresponding mating slots formed near a first end of the retaining clip member, for example, in press-fit engagement. The angle stops formed in the supporting member hold a second end of the retaining clip member with the V-seal EMC gasket clamped and retained in position between the supporting member and the retaining clip member.
