SOFTFLEX GAP FILLER LIGHT FLEXIBLE THERMAL GAP FILLING PADS The Aavid SoftFlex series is our most flexible and diverse line of thermal conductive pads. The compressibility and adhesion features enable a dramatic reduction in thermal resistance when mounting. The unique flexibility of the SoftFlex base material provides exceptional contouring and excellent cushioning performance. These defining features ensure that SoftFlex Gap Fillers are ideal for dealing with uneven surfaces, parts with varying heights and devices that require greater flexibility in design, all the while reducing overall stress to the PCB and eliminating tolerances. SoftFlex Thermal Interface Pads are available in full 400mm x 200mm sheets that Aavid can cut and shape to suit your needs. They are also available in easy to use 25.4mm x 25.4mm (1”x 1”) and 76.2mm x 76.2mm (3”x 3”) pads for quick and simple assembly. PART NUMBERS Part Numbers for Aavid Gap Pads are made up of six sections that represent the product, thickness, adhesion and size. Instructions on how to build your part numbers are available in the document Building an Aavid Gap Pad Part Number.
