    Non-Bonding Heat Transfer Compounds

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Thermal Paste. Non-Bonding Heat Transfer Compounds.
    Also known as thermal paste, these boron-nitride compounds increase heat transfer between parts while preventing them from sticking. Unlike antiseize compounds, they don't conduct electricity, so you won't risk shorting out sensitive electronics. They're often used on thermocouple probes to improve accuracy. You can also use them in 3D printer heating blocks and other high-temperature areas to keep parts from fusing together.

    Eliminate air gaps that cause heat loss and premature heater failure. These compounds mold around heat cable so it makes direct contact with pipes, pumps, and other parts.
    450° F Maximum Temperature—Compounds with a 450° F maximum temperature don’t harden, so they maintain a tight seal even as the surface you’re heating expands and contracts. Since they’re waterproof, they also shield the surface from corrosion.
    750° F Maximum Temperature—Compounds with a 750° F maximum temperature are often used with steam, hot oil, and glycol heat trace lines.
    1,250° F Maximum Temperature and 2,200° F Maximum Temperature—Compounds with a 1250° F or 2200° F maximum temperature are often used with steam heat trace lines, strip heaters, and ring heaters.

    A high silver content gives this grease excellent conductivity for applications where electricity and heat transfer are required. It is suitable for ESD (electrostatic discharge) and EMI (electromagnetic interference) shielding applications.
    Grease lubricates most efficiently within the listed temperature range.
    2 NLGI Grade—NLGI 2 is about the consistency of peanut butter.
    Melting Temperature—Melting temperature is the point at which grease will fail and run out of equipment, leaving it to run dry.
    Electrical Resistivity—Electrical resistivity is a measure of how well a material opposes the flow of electricity. The lower the rating, the more electricity it conducts.
    Thermal Conductivity—Thermal conductivity measures a material’s ability to transfer heat. The higher the rating, the more heat it transfers.
    Cannot Be Sold To—Product regulations restrict sales to the listed jurisdictions/areas.
