Thermal Gap Pad

Soft, reliable thermal interface for optimized heat transfer.
Ideal for EV batteries, ECUs, and power units with easy application and long-term stability.

Flexible and Efficient Thermal Solution for Heat-Sensitive EV Components

Thermal gap pads are highly flexible, thermally conductive interface sheets designed to fill air gaps between heat-generating components and heat sinks. Their softness ensures minimal mechanical stress while maintaining strong insulation properties, making them ideal for electric vehicle applications.

These pads are offered in various types and thicknesses to meet the specific thermal management needs of systems such as batteries, chargers, inverters, and ECUs (including ADAS). Their excellent durability and easy handling make them a preferred solution for automotive engineers aiming to extend component lifetime and system reliability.
