Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: How does alumina ceramic compare to silicone thermal pads?
A: Alumina offers higher thermal conductivity and temperature resistance, making it suitable for high-power applications, while silicone pads are softer for irregular surfaces.

Q: How to select the right thickness?
A: Depends on cooling requirements and assembly space; common thicknesses are 0.5-3mm. Consult our engineers for guidance.

Q: Can the pad be reused?
A: Not recommended—removal may affect flatness and thermal performance.

Q: Is thermal grease necessary?
A: Optional for precision-machined surfaces, but a thin layer improves heat transfer.

Q: What is the maximum pressure tolerance?
A: Compressive strength >200 MPa, but installation pressure should not exceed 10 MPa to avoid cracking.
