Thermal Gap Filler
MID-PERFORMANCE GAP FILLER WITH 1.8 W/MK
Tflex™ HR400 is a cost-effective and compliant gap filler thermal interface material with
excellent thermal performance and great handling for mass-production applications.
The low modulus interface pad conforms to component topography, resulting in little stress
on the components, mating chassis or parts. The softness relieves mechanical stress from
high stack-up tolerance and absorbs shock, resulting in improved device reliability. Tflex™
HR400’s recovery properties for applications requiring material rework result in continued
mechanical integrity even after device rework and re-assembly.
Tflex™ HR400 is naturally tacky on both sides and requires no additional adhesive coating to
inhibit thermal performance. The tack is designed to hold the pad in place during assembly
and component transport.
Tflex™ HR400 is electrically insulating, stable from -50ºC thru 160ºC, and meets UL 94V0
flame rating.
