## Summary description

Alphacool 12996 is a thermal grease designed for efficient heat transfer in electronic components. It comes in a 3.5 g tube and features a grey silver color. This compound ensures optimal thermal conductivity, making it suitable for CPUs, GPUs, and other heat-sensitive components.

## Long description

Alphacool Subzero Thermal Grease (3.5 g) is a high-performance thermal compound designed to improve heat transfer between processors and coolers. The grey-silver paste delivers an extreme thermal conductivity of 16 W/mK and comes in a syringe with a screw-on lid and a small plastic spatula for easier application. It is non-electrically conductive and supplied in a 3.5 g tube, suitable for CPUs, GPUs and other heat-sensitive components.
Advantages
The paste offers very high thermal conductivity (16 W/mK) at a viscosity of 850000 TF, which makes it slightly more fluid than many other greases and facilitates even spreading. The screw-on lid reduces drying of the remaining compound, and the included plastic spatula helps achieve a thin, consistent layer. Being non-electrically conductive lowers the risk of short circuits if a small amount is misplaced.
Suitable for
 High-end CPUs and GPUs where maximal heat transfer is required
 Custom PC builds and overclocking setups
 Replacement of existing thermal paste on coolers and heatsinks
 Cooling-sensitive electronics and components
Key specifications
 Type: Thermal grease
 Thermal conductivity: 16 W/mK
 Viscosity: 850000 TF
 Net weight: 3.5 g
 Color: Grey / Silver
 Packaging: Syringe with screw-on lid; includes plastic spatula
 Electrical conductivity: Non-conductive
How to use
Clean the CPU or component surface and the cooler base with isopropyl alcohol and let dry. Apply a thin, even layer of Alphacool Subzero Thermal Grease across the surface of the processor — the product’s lower viscosity helps achieve a uniform coating. Use the included spatula to spread the paste if desired, or place a small dot in the centre before mounting the cooler so the pressure spreads the compound. After use, close the syringe with its screw-on lid to prevent drying.
Usage recommendations
For best thermal results, use a minimal, even layer and avoid over-application. Ensure mating surfaces are clean and flat, and reapply paste when replacing the cooler or if thermal performance degrades. Store the syringe upright in a cool, dry place and keep the screw-on lid tightly closed between uses.
