The ARCTIC TP-3 is a soft thermal pad for PC builders and repairers who need to transfer heat between components and a heatsink. Its 100 x 100 mm sheet can be cut to suit RAM, chipsets, graphics cards, laptops, consoles and other electronic devices.

Made from silicone with a special filler, the pad conducts heat while its softness and compressibility help it bridge gaps between uneven surfaces or components of different heights. It is electrically insulating and contains no metal particles, making it straightforward to handle around electronic components. The non-adhesive material can be positioned precisely and reshaped for the application.

Key features

• 100 x 100 mm sheet with a 1 mm thickness for general-purpose fitting.
• Can be cut to the shape and size required for a component.
• Soft and compressible to fill uneven surfaces and air gaps.
• Helps accommodate differences in component height and manufacturing tolerances.
• Electrically insulating material for use around electronic traces.
• Non-adhesive design allows accurate placement and easy handling.
• Vibration-damping properties help protect sensitive components.

Compatibility

Suitable for thermal transfer applications involving RAM, chipsets and integrated circuits in PCs, laptops, consoles, graphics cards and other electronics. Choose a pad thickness that matches the gap in your specific assembly; dimensions and thickness vary across the TP-3 range. Good to know: this is a single 100 x 100 mm sheet, not a pre-cut kit, so check the required contact area and thickness before installation.
