The unique design (patent pending) of the W Series heat sinks combines a tin plated, solderable, integral spring clip with an extruded aluminum heat sink body for an all-in-one solution to through-hole mounting of TO-220, TO-247, and TO-264 packages. These self-aligning heat sinks feature solderable feet and an integrated clip with 13.2 (lbf) of force on the center of the device to enhance thermal performance. Specifications Heat Sink: Aluminum alloy 6063T5 or equivalent. Spring Clip: Music wire, per ASTM A228 Pin: Solderable 100% tin over copper strike Interface thermal resistance: for improvement, use thermal joint compound or 0.005 Grafoil (TGon 800 by Laird) Interface electrical isolation: Sil-Pad 900S by Bergquist or equivalent Mounting: Vertical thru-hole mount Clip Force: 13.2 lbf.
