ARCTIC TP-3 100x100mm, 1.0mm Premium Performance Thermal Pad

High performance – Very soft
Based on silicone and a special filler material, the TP-3 outperforms high-performance pads, especially when the height differences of closely spaced chips usually occur due to manufacturing tolerances. TP-3 offers excellent thermal conductivity despite extremely low hardness.

Minimization of thermal resistance
The thinner the pad, the lower the thermal resistance. The TP-3 pad with a thickness of 0.5 mm can easily be compressed to 0.3 mm and thus compensate for height differences between various components of up to 0.2 mm. Please note that due to the extremely low hardness, the placement of the 0.5mm pad requires special care.

Flexible applications
Thermally conductive, shock absorbing, moldable, electrically insulating – safe and easy to use. Thanks to its good compression properties, the soft thermal pad is particularly gentle on components and at the same time a good heat conductor. In addition to the standard format for M.2, TP-3 is available in various sizes and thicknesses, which can be easily cut to the desired shape and size. This makes it ideal for RAM memories, chipsets and integrated circuits of all kinds, which are used in computers, laptops, consoles, graphics cards and in general electronic devices.

Safe handling
ARCTIC TP-3 is electrically insulating, non-adhesive and easy to handle. This means that optimal and safe heat transfer can be ensured in many areas of application.

Bridging the gaps
TP-3 is softer than conventional pads and therefore particularly suitable for different chip heights. Thanks to their good compressibility properties, thermal pads act as the perfect gap filler and bridge uneven surface and air gaps without stressing sensitive and protruding components.

They are available in different thicknesses and sizes
Thermal pads are available in 0.5mm, 1.0mm and 1.5mm options. The 0.5 mm variant is ideal as an alternative to thermally conductive aluminum foil. The pads are available in different dimensions, depending on their thickness. If required, the pads can also be cut independently to any size.
