TIM Pads & Films (Rogers / Arlon)
Thermally conductive interface pads and adhesive films are the material of choice when power electronics and heat sink assemblies require a material that simultaneously transfers heat and provides electrical isolation between component and chassis — conditions where bare graphite cannot be used. Silicone-based Protect™ TIM pads and Secure™ adhesive films deliver thermal conductivities from 1.5 to over 3.0 W/m·K with dielectric isolation suited to module-to-heatsink and heat-spreader bonding applications in power conversion and RF electronics. H-O Products carries the Protect™ and Secure™ series TIM pads and adhesive films from Rogers and Arlon, and converts them to customer specification.
