GP-1500R Datasheet, PDF (1/2 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – Easy release construction
Gap Pad® 1500R
July 2011
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Thermally Conductive, Reinforced
Gap Filling Material
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Thermal conductivity: 1.5 W/m-K
• Fiberglass reinforced for puncture,
shear and tear resistance
• Easy release construction
• Electrically isolating
Gap Pad® 1500R has the same highly
conformable, low-modulus polymer as the
standard Gap Pad® 1500.The fiberglass
reinforcement allows for easy material
handling and enhances puncture, shear
and tear resistance.The natural tack on
both sides of the material allows for good
compliance to mating surfaces of
components, further reducing
thermal resistance.

1) Thir ty second delay value Shore 00 hardness scale. 2)Young’s Modulus, calculated using 0.01 in/min. step rate of strain
with a sample size of 0.79 inch2. 3) The ASTM D5470 test fixture was used. The recorded value includes interfacial ther-
mal resistance. These values are provided for reference only. Actual application performance is directly related to the
surface roughness, flatness and pressure applied.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS INCLUDE
• Telecommunications
• Computer and peripherals
• Power conversion
• RDRAM™ memory modules/chip scale packages
• Areas where heat needs to be transferred to a frame chassis or other
type of heat spreader
CONFIGURATIONS AVAILABLE
• Sheet form, die-cut parts, and roll form (converted or unconverted)
