Thermal grease Alphacool 13037 17 W/m·K 1 g

The Alphacool Apex Thermal Grease (Alphacool 13037) is a high-performance thermal paste formulated to improve heat transfer between heat-generating components and their coolers. With a thermal conductivity of 17 W/m·K and a density of 3.2 g/cm³, this electrically non-conductive compound is supplied in a 1 g applicator and is intended for users seeking optimal cooling efficiency and reliable application.

Advantages

The Apex thermal grease offers very high thermal conductivity (17 W/m·K), is non-conductive and non-corrosive, and is delivered in a 1 g syringe-style applicator with a screw cap for controlled dispensing. Its high viscosity helps achieve an even, stable layer that performs well under high contact pressure. Small spills are unlikely to cause electrical damage.

Suitable for

• CPU cooling in desktop systems
• GPU cooling and aftermarket graphics card maintenance
• Cooling components in game consoles (PlayStation, Xbox)
• Other electronic components requiring efficient thermal transfer

How to use

Clean both contact surfaces (CPU/GPU heat spreader and cooler base) thoroughly to remove old thermal compound, dust and oils. Apply a small amount of the Apex thermal grease from the 1 g applicator to the center of the chip surface and spread with a plastic spatula or a similar non-metallic tool to form a thin, even layer, or use the single-dot method and rely on mounting pressure to spread the paste. Refit the cooler and tighten mounting hardware evenly to ensure good contact.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use a small, consistent amount—excessive paste can reduce performance—and avoid metal tools when spreading to prevent scratches. Store the applicator capped in a cool, dry place. Replace thermal paste during major system maintenance or if temperatures rise noticeably.
