Powerful!

Alphacool's wide range of thermal pads is there to enable effective heat dissipation from electrical components. Within it Alphacool offers the Apex as the most powerful option, one that can reliably dissipate the waste heat. The ultrasoft pad has what Alphacool calls optimal compressibility. Due to its low hardness and natural stickiness it can be adapted to surfaces, perfectly in Alphacool's words, and evens out unevenness between components. Thus, Alphacool says, the pad greatly improves heat transfer.

Longer Life!

Thanks to its unique material composition, Alphacool says, the risk of silicone bleeding from the pad is significantly reduced. According to Alphacool it can cool reliably for a far longer period of time without suffering a significant drop in performance.

Versatile!

Thanks to its strong compressibility the pad is also versatile. Its electrical insulation, which Alphacool rates as excellent, makes it suitable for cooling electrical components in a wide range of devices. Alphacool names examples such as electric vehicles, autopilot systems, mobile phones, servers, motherboards, power supplies, LCD TVs, notebooks, telecommunications equipment, access points, memory modules and many others.
