Maxtor AP-12 High-Performance Silicone Thermal Pad, 14.8W/m·K Thermal Conductivity, 120 × 120 × 2.0mm, Electrically Insulating, Cut-to-Fit for GPU VRAM, VRM, SSD & Laptop Cooling | Grey

Expert Features

  • 14.8 W/m·K Thermal Conductivity: High-performance silicone thermal interface material helps transfer heat from electronic components to compatible cooling surfaces.
  • 2.0 mm Precision Thickness: Pre-formed thermal pad for assemblies specifically requiring a 2 mm gap-filling interface between components and heatsinks.
  • 120 × 120 mm Large Sheet: Generous square format can be cut into multiple smaller pieces for custom thermal-management and repair applications.
  • Electrically Insulating: Non-electrically conductive silicone formulation is suitable for use around sensitive electronic components.
  • Flexible Silicone Construction: Conformable material helps accommodate minor surface irregularities under suitable heatsink mounting pressure.
  • GPU VRAM & VRM Cooling: Suitable for compatible graphics-card memory chips and voltage-regulation components requiring a 2 mm thermal interface.
  • SSD & Motherboard Cooling: Can be trimmed for compatible M.2 SSDs, motherboard chipsets, memory modules, and integrated circuits.
  • Wide Operating Temperature Range: Manufacturer-rated operating range of −50°C to +250°C for demanding electronic thermal-management applications.
  • Clean, Pre-Formed Installation: Cut to size, remove protective films, and position without spreading conventional thermal grease.
  • Non-Curing Material: Silicone-based formulation remains non-curing rather than hardening into a rigid adhesive layer.
  • Custom Cut-to-Fit Design: Trim the sheet for individual components while retaining the original 2.0 mm nominal thickness.
  • PC & Laptop Thermal Servicing: Practical for gaming-PC, graphics-card, laptop, workstation, and electronics servicing where a 2 mm thermal pad is specified.
