Laird Technologies has released the Tflex XS400 series thermal gap filler designed for telecom, IT, consumer, automotive, LED and power supply applications. The Tflex XS400 gap filler is an easy-to-handle thermal pad that possesses low out-gassing properties. It is ideal for applications that require a gap pad between heat-generating components and heat sinks and provides electrical isolation with the ability to absorb high-tolerance stack-up.
The Tflex XS400 series is the latest thermal pad in the Tflex thermal gap filler line, offering a compliant elastomer gap filler specifically designed to provide moderate thermal performance with a thermal conductivity of 2.0W/mK. This soft interface pad conforms with minimal pressure, resulting in minimal thermal resistance even at low pressure with little or no stress on mating parts.
Available in thicknesses from 0.020in (0.50mm) through 0.200in (5.0mm) in 0.010in increments, the Tflex XS400 thermal material is naturally tacky for easy assembly and no adhesive coating is required. Due to its TG (Tgard) liner on the other side, it is electrically insulating, stable from -40C to 160C, and is certified to UL 94V0 flammability rating, complying with the limits of RoHS Directive 2002/95/EC and its subsequent amendments.
This is really very useful, easy-to-handle thermal pad that possesses low out-gassing properties, and provides electrical isolation, thanks for providing this valuable information
