3M Thermally Conductive Silicone Interface Pad 5516 is a highly conformable, slightly tacky silicone elastomer pad. Designed to provide heat transfer path between heat generating components and heat sinks, heat spreaders or other cooling devices.

  • Good thermal conductivity (3.1 w/m-K)
  • Good softness and is conformable at low pressure ( Shore 00 = 50)
  • Softness results in low stress on board components
  • Good dielectric properties
  • Slight tack allows pre-assembly
  • Good wettability for better thermal conductivity

    Yes, the pad can easily be cut down to size with scissors or a sharp blade.

  4. Is this interface pad suitable for use with high temperatures?

    Yes, the pad can withstand high temperatures up to +200°C without losing its effectiveness.

  5. Can you tell me more about what kind of surfaces these pads work effectively on?

    . The Thermally Conductive Interface Pad Sheet works well on smooth surfaces made from metals such as aluminum and copper alloys. It also provides good results when used on ceramic substrates found in microprocessors LED lighting applications.

3M™ Thermally Conductive Silicone Interface Pad 5516 has a soft pad that conforms to uneven substrates, providing excellent wettability to fill gaps for improved thermal performance. The thin, firm, low-tack layer provides easy handling for pre-assembly and die-cutting. This pad provides robust thermal management for applications in a variety of market segments, such as consumer electronics, automotive, LED lighting, medical devices, communication infrastructure, and aerospace & defense.


Recommended Applications:

  • Heat transfer between PCB and heat sink
  • Integrated chip (IC) packaging heat conduction
  • Chip on film (COF) heat dissipation
  • Gap filling in electronic devices
  • Decrease of compression stress to electronic parts by thermal pad softness

Examples:

  • LED displays
  • Electric vehicle (EV) batteries
  • Wireless charging units
  • Satellite navigation
  • Sensors
  • Process control equipment
  • Test & measurement devices

Our family of 3M(TM) Thermally Conductive Silicone Interface Pads performs well in applications requiring high temperatures. The soft silicone pads conform to a variety of substrates. These pads come in a variety of thicknesses to meet your design needs. Some pads can be customized beyond standard thicknesses for advanced designs.
