thermal gap filling pads
Design Engineers are constantly looking for the highest thermal conductivity thermal pad they can find. In this blog we will be discussing 5 “High Thermal Conductivity Gap Pads”. Keep in mind Thermal Conductivity is Not Everything. That is why we have included some other criteria such as softness, natural tack, and thermal impedance below. However, below is a good place to start if you are looking for gap filling pads with a high level of thermal conductivity.
