GP-HC1000 Datasheet, PDF (1/2 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – Thermal conductivity: 1.0 W/m-K
Gap Pad® HC1000
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
“Gel-Like” Modulus Gap Filling Material
FEATURES AND BENEFITS
• Thermal conductivity: 1.0 W/m-K
• Highly conformable, low hardness
• “Gel-like” modulus
• Fiberglass reinforced for puncture,
shear and tear resistance
Gap Pad® HC 1000 is an extremely
conformable, low-modulus polymer that
acts as a thermal interface and electrical
insulator between electronic components
and heat sinks.The “gel-like” modulus
allows this material to fill air gaps to
enhance the thermal performance of
electronic systems. Gap Pad® HC1000 is
offered with removable protective liners
on both sides of the material.

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
• Computer and peripherals
• Telecommunications
• Heat interfaces to frames, chassis or other heat spreading devices
• RDRAM™ memory modules/chip scale packages
• CDROM/DVD cooling
• Areas where irregular surfaces need to make a thermal interface to a heat sink
• DDR SDRAM memory modules
• FBDIMM modules
CONFIGURATIONS AVAILABLE
• Sheet form, die-cut parts, and roll form (converted or unconverted)
