Our most popular products:
- Pad 80LO – 8.3W/m-K: THERM-A-GAP™ PAD 80LO is a premium thermal gap filler designed to deliver high performance and long-term reliability across various industries, including advanced computing, defense, telecommunications, and automotive electronics. With a thermal conductivity of 8.0 W/m-K, it effectively manages heat transfer while addressing concerns of silicone oil migration.
- Pad 30 – 3.0 W/m-K: THERM-A-GAP PAD 30 is a high-performance, thermally conductive, and electrically isolating gap filler pad with a thermal conductivity of 3.0 W/m-K. Engineered to deliver efficient heat transfer between electronic devices and heat sinks or other cooling components, THERM-A-GAP PAD 30 excels in balancing heat transfer capabilities with low outgassing and low compression forces.
- Pad 120LO – 12.0 W/m-K: THERM-A-GAP PAD 120LO is a high-performance, thermally conductive, and electrically isolating gap filler pad with a thermal conductivity of 12.0 W/m-K. Designed for efficient heat dissipation between electronic components and cooling elements, THERM-A-GAP PAD 120LO offers exceptional thermal management performance while maintaining low outgassing properties and a low modulus, ensuring minimal stress on delicate components.
- CIP 60 – Dispensable Cure-in-Place 6.0 W/m-K: THERM-A-FORM CIP 60 is a two-component (2k) dispensable thermal gap filler with a thermal conductivity of 6.0 W/m-K. With a Shore 00 hardness of 50 at full cure, it is engineered as a flexible alternative to rigid, hard-curing materials. Its lower hardness enables it to act as a vibration dampener and simplifies the rework process.
- Thermal Gel 50VT – 5.0 W-m/K: THERM-A-GAP GEL 50VT is a reworkable, high-performance, one-component silicone thermal interface gel with a typical thermal conductivity of 5.2 W/m-K. This dispensable material is meticulously engineered to efficiently transfer heat from electronic components to heat sinks or enclosures, ensuring optimal performance even in vertical orientations and high vibration environments. The “VT” in its name signifies its Vertical Tackiness, a feature designed to maintain the gel’s position and effectiveness in challenging applications.
- TFLOW 777: ThermFlow T777 demonstrates significantly lower thermal impedance (0.0055 vs. 0.013), making it a superior choice for high-pressure applications where efficient heat transfer is critical.
