Description

Tgard K52 is a high thermal and dielectric performance silicone insulator pad consisting of a ceramic filled phase change compound coated on MT Kapton film. Tgard K52 phase change coating all but eliminates contact thermal resistance. The phase change coating melts at 52ºC and replaces all contact areas that contain air.

Tgard K52-2 is ideal for applications requiring the best thermal performing insulator material.
