Tgard K52 is a high thermal and dielectric insulator pad consisting of a ceramic-filled phase change material compound coated on MT Kapton film. This phase change coating essentially eliminates contact thermal resistance. It melts at 52° C and replaces all contact areas that contain air.
Tgard K52 is ideal for LPWAN applications requiring superior thermal performing insulator material. It exhibits an ideal balance of thermal, dielectric and cut-through performance. Tgard K52 is a 3 mil MT Kapton film that provides superior cruch and cut and tear resistance along with advanced thermal properties.
Features
