Gap Pad HC 1000 is an extremely conformable low modulus polymer that acts as a thermal interface and electrical insulator between electronic components and heat sinks. The “gel-like” modulus allows this material to fill air gaps to enhance the thermal performance of electronic systems. Gap Pad HC1000 is offered with removable protective liners on both sides of the material.
The resultant thickness of the Gap Pad will determine the thermal resistance. Subtracting the initial gap pad thickness by the deflection value, obtained above, will give the resultant thickness. Refer to the graph below to obtain the thermal resistance of the material.
