Square grey thermal pad 100x100x1.0mm with protective foil

Phobya

Phobya 17045 Thermal Pad 1.5W/mk 100x100x1.0mm

SKU CH-9J1C-98Y78

A 100 by 100 millimetre thermal pad 1.0 millimetre thick with 1.5 W/mK conductivity, flexible and slightly sticky for VRAM, VRM or chipset cooling

  • Key featuresThese thermal pads are perfectly suited to equalize height d
  • Conforms to uneven surfaces with flexible low-hardness material
  • 5 W/mk conductivity moves heat from VRAM and VRM modules
  • Pre-cut 100 mm square simplifies installation on large chips
  • Protective foil peels away leaving slight tack to stop pad shift
  • Trimmable to custom shapes for precise component coverage

Phobya 17045 Thermal Pad 1.5 W/mK

This Phobya thermal pad is a single 100 x 100 x 1.0 mm sheet rated at 1.5 W/mK. It is designed to fill gaps between a cooler and components such as VRAM or VRM modules, evening out microscopic scratches and larger height differences. The soft, flexible material conforms well even under low mounting pressure. A protective foil covers the slightly tacky surfaces and must be removed before use.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

Builders who need a thin, compliant interface for memory chips, voltage regulators or similar small areas will find this pad easy to trim and install. It is not aimed at users who require higher thermal conductivity or a different thickness for their specific cooler design. Anyone needing a pre-cut shape or a multi-pack for repeated maintenance should consider other options.

Deciding specification: 1.5 W/mK conductivity

The 1.5 W/mK rating is the single figure that determines whether this pad meets the thermal demand of the target component. If the application calls for a higher conductivity value, this model will not suffice regardless of its softness or dimensions.

Questions about this item

Does the 1.5 W/m·K pad generate any extra heat or noise when used continuously on a GPU?

The pad is a passive thermal interface with 1.5 W/m·K conductivity; it adds no active heat or noise and simply conducts heat away from the component.

What else must I already have to install the 100 × 100 × 1.0 mm pad on my graphics card VRAM?

You need the graphics card or motherboard with accessible VRAM or VRM surfaces, a cooler or heatsink to mate with the pad, and basic tools to remove the protective foil and trim the sheet if required.

Will the 1.0 mm thickness work with the original cooler mounting pressure on an older graphics card?

The pad’s low hardness and flexible structure let it conform at low contact pressures, so it adapts to the existing mounting force of legacy coolers without needing extra pressure.
