Thermal pad Alphacool Apex 17.8 W/m·K 100x100x1.5mm

Alphacool Apex thermal pad is a silicone-based, ultra-soft thermal interface material with a thermal conductivity of 17.8 W/m·K, density 3.5 g/cm³ and dimensions 100 x 100 x 1.5 mm. Designed to improve heat transfer between electronic components, the pad combines low hardness and natural tack to conform to uneven surfaces and compensate for gaps, supporting longer stable cooling performance compared with conventional pads.

Advantages

The Apex pad provides high thermal conductivity for efficient heat dissipation and excellent compressibility that ensures close contact with heat sources. Its material composition reduces the risk of silicone bleeding, extending functional life while retaining electrical insulation properties that allow safe use near live circuits.

Suitable for

• Electric vehicles and autopilot systems
• Mobile phones, notebooks and LCD TVs
• Servers, motherboards and power supplies
• Telecommunications equipment and access points
• Memory modules and other electronic components requiring thermal management

How to use

Clean and dry both mating surfaces before application. Cut the thermal pad to the required shape if necessary and place it between the heat source and heatsink or protective plate, ensuring full coverage of the heat-generating area. Apply even pressure to seat the pad and establish full contact; avoid shifting the pad after installation to preserve its conformity and adhesion.

Usage recommendations

Use the Alphacool Apex thermal pad in applications where a soft, highly conformable interface is needed and electrical insulation is required. For best results, select a pad thickness that matches the gap between components and periodically inspect the interface during long-term operation.
