F17 – Normal Gap Filler (Silicone)
Heat-conducting rubber
F17 is an ultra soft gap filling material formulated to thermally connect sensitive components and devices to nearby metal work or a cold wall.
Thal Article Number: F17
F17 - Normal Gap Filler (Silicone)
F17 delivers excellent vibration dampening properties that protect pressure sensitive heat generating components from dimensional changes. Its softness allows for varying component heights and sizes to conform to the surface texture of the material.Â
F17 delivers 1.7W/mK conductivity and is ideal for applications that re-quire a combination of good temperature stability, large temperature excursions and vibration dampening.
- F = Filler / 17 = 1.7 W/mK / 1016 = 1.016 mm thickness
Very nice to work with. This is exactly what we were looking for for our project!
