Gap Pad VO Soft is recommended for
applications that require a minimum amount
of pressure on components. Gap Pad VO
Soft is a highly conformable, low-modulus,
filled-silicone polymer on a rubber-coated
fiberglass carrier.The material can be used
as an interface where one side is in contact
with a leaded device.
Note: Resultant thickness is defined as the final gap
thickness of the application.

. 3) The ASTM D5470 test fixture was used. The recorded value includes interfacial ther-
mal resistance. These values are provided for reference only. Actual application performance is directly related to the
surface roughness, flatness and pressure applied.
Typical Applications Include:
• Telecommunications
• Computer and peripherals
• Power conversion
• Between heat-generating semiconductors or magnetic components and a heat sink
• Area where heat needs to be transferred to a frame, chassis, or other type of heat spreader
Configurations Available:
• Sheet form and die-cut parts
