Product Uses

3M™ Thermally Conductive Silicone Interface Pad 5514 is designed to provide a thermal path between heat-generating electronic components and heat sinks, cooling devices or other heat-spreading structures.

The soft and conformable silicone elastomer construction helps maximize surface contact and accommodate irregular or uneven surfaces. Its slightly tacky surface also helps maintain positioning during assembly.

With thermal conductivity of 1.6 W/m-K and good dielectric properties, the 5514 pad is suitable for electronic thermal management applications where both heat transfer and electrical insulation are required.

The 5514 series is available in thin 0.20mm and 0.25mm thicknesses, making it suitable for applications where limited interface space is available.

The material can also be converted into complicated shapes and application-specific thermal interface components using die-cutting, slitting and other converting processes.
