No. It's semi-metallic conductive foam, to shield the antenna from interference somehow caused by the analog stick. https://www.cnet.com/au/news/nintendo-switch-joycon-desync-connectivity-issue-fix/ https://cnet1.cbsistatic.com/img/frEh3xt5VNuyWTo_YgKDDZQXCog=/fit-in/970x0/2017/03/17/9f1a041e-a87f-4cd9-9989-bd973d89347a/nintendo-switch-joy-con-board-1.jpg https://cnet1.cbsistatic.com/img/vPH0_XGM8A0YwYbl0H4BK0L8j5U=/fit-in/970x0/2017/03/20/e20a4c90-3ab9-4d46-b8ef-88c14160a35e/nintendo-switch-joy-con-fix.jpg <cite>Questionmarktarius posted [p:895937091] in I sent in ...
