Thermal
We offer advanced thermal interface materials provided by Chomerics. Many designers have an issue of degraded components and system performance when heat is involved. The thermal interface materials offer superior heat spreading and conductivity eliminating air gaps improving thermal transfer.
Some of the advanced thermal materials available include CHO-THERM, THERMATTACH, THERMFLOW, THERM-A-GAP, AND T-WING. We supply all the right materials when it comes to keeping components safe from degrading from heat allowing optimum system performance.
Curable Gap Fillers

Tapes and Adhesives
Tapes
Tapes are electrical grade, pressure-sensitive that have been developed by Permacel to hold, protect, reinforce and insulate magnetic wire in electrical and electronic components, devices, and equipment.
The types of tapes range from rubber, non-thermosetting, semi-cured, acrylic, thermoplastic, oil-resistant, silicone and flame retardant acrylic. The correct choice of tape backing or adhesive is extremely important to assure minimal corrosive destruction on specified designs.
