Product information "TG Kapton Insulation Sheet Black Edition"

The Kapton Insulation Sheet Black Edition is a polyimide film that can be used at high temperatures up to 260 °C and serves as an installation aid for electrically conductive thermal interface materials (TIM), such as Conductonaut liquid metal, Carbonaut, or KryoSheet.

Black Edition: Thinner, stronger, and ideal for precise masking

It is ideal for masking components such as SMDs on a CPU or GPU when using these materials. Compared to the standard Kapton Insulation Sheet, the Black Edition is slightly thinner (30 µm instead of 40 µm) and offers a significantly higher breakdown voltage of 5 kV. The Kapton Insulation Sheet Black Edition is supplied as 10 carrier sheets, each containing 5 Kapton adhesive strips. Each strip measures 10 mm in width and 60 mm in length, with a thickness of 30 µm. It is recommended to thoroughly clean the contact surfaces before applying the insulation sheet (e.g., using isopropyl alcohol).

Note on use with High Performance Heatspreaders and Direct-Die coolers

The TG Kapton Insulation Sheet should not be used in combination with High Performance Heatspreaders or Direct-Die coolers. Instead, a thin layer of TG Shield should be applied to protect the electronic components. The reason for this is that High Performance Heatspreaders (HPHS) and Direct-Die coolers rest directly on the CPU package. When a Kapton Insulation Sheet is used, the internal structure of the HPHS or Direct-Die cooler may rest on the Insulation Sheet, preventing contact between the CPU die and the HPHS or cooler.

TG Kapton Insulation Sheet

How do I cut TG Kapton Insulation Sheet to size and apply it correctly for electrical insulation?

Cut TG Kapton Insulation Sheet to size with clean, sharp scissors or a blade on a suitable surface, never directly on the circuit board or CPU substrate. Apply the film to clean, dry surfaces that need electrical insulation. The actual heat transfer surface must remain clear. Avoid torn edges, wrinkles and overlapping layers under the cooler. In direct-die installations, even a thin additional layer can change the contact height. Use the protection method specified in the cooler's instructions for these installations.

Is TG Kapton Insulation Sheet electrically conductive, and how do I prevent short circuits?

TG Kapton Insulation Sheet is used to electrically insulate suitable contact areas. Its protective effect requires a clean surface. The film must not get between the cooler and the contact surface, as this would impair heat transfer. For applications with specific voltage requirements, thickness and electrical specifications must be checked separately.

Which version of TG Kapton Insulation Sheet do I need, and how do the variants differ?

Both versions are suitable for continuous temperature exposure up to 180 °C. The standard TG Kapton Insulation Sheet withstands temperatures up to 280 °C for short periods. The transparent, yellowish film allows the covered components to remain visible. TG Kapton Insulation Sheet Black Edition withstands temperatures up to 260 °C for short periods. Its matte black surface is suitable when components should also be visually concealed or when the yellowish film does not suit the design.

Where can I find the instructions, datasheet or technical drawing for TG Kapton Insulation Sheet?
