Product information "Aeronaut"

Aeronaut thermal paste is the ideal beginner's product with high effectiveness. Great surface protection, as well as good heat transfer capabilites make Aeronaut the ideal choice for users who want to optimize their cooling solution in an effective way, or maybe want to use an alternative to the thermal grease included with their hardware, with a remarkable cost effectiveness to boot.

Properties

very good thermal conductivity
long-term durability
no curing
no electrical conductivity
Available in four sizes: 1g | 1.5ml | 3ml | 10ml

Perfect cooling for beginners

Even though the amount of metallic elements in Aeronauts formula is lower in comparison to our other products, it still provides reliable and performant thermal conductivity. In our lab tests, Aeronaut showed a high amount of wear resistance under high temperatures, and acts also surface-protecting. The removal of Aeronaut thermal paste causes far less micro scratches on the components surface compared to other products.

Aeronaut

Which version of Aeronaut suits my application, and what thermal conductivity and cooling performance does it offer?

Aeronaut is a general-purpose thermal paste for getting started and improving conventional CPU and GPU cooling. The temperature you can achieve depends on power consumption, the cooler, the contact surfaces and installation. A fixed temperature advantage over other thermal interface materials therefore cannot be specified for every system. Compare performance under the same conditions.

Where can I find instructions, datasheets and safety or compliance documentation for Aeronaut?

Available instructions, technical data sheets, safety data sheets and conformity documents for Aeronaut can be found in the downloads section of the product page. Check the exact product name and item number. A technical data sheet does not replace a safety data sheet. If a document or language version is missing, tell us the item number and which document you need.

How do I apply the correct amount of Aeronaut in a thin, even layer?

Clean and degrease the CPU or GPU and the cooler's contact surface, then let them dry. Apply Aeronaut at room temperature to clean, dry contact surfaces. Use the spatula to spread the paste slowly into a thin layer, applying even pressure. Avoid fast wiping movements, as they can lift the paste off the surface again. A thick consistency is not a defect in itself. Do not use solvents or oils to thin the paste, and do not press on the edges of exposed dies. Warming the product with a hair dryer can make it easier to apply. The amount needed depends on the contact area. Cover it completely with a thin layer, especially on exposed dies. A thick layer or a large amount extending beyond the contact area is not necessary. However, applying too much does not result in worse temperatures. Excess paste is squeezed out of the gap.

How long does Aeronaut last in use, what is pump-out, and when should I replace it?

There is no universal replacement interval for Aeronaut once installed in a system. Check temperatures under comparable loads and at comparable ambient temperatures. Replace the paste if temperatures show a confirmed deterioration or if you have removed the cooler. A universal service life cannot be specified. Temperature changes can gradually displace thermal paste from the contact area, a process known as pump-out. A thin, even layer of Aeronaut and correct cooler installation reduce this risk, but cannot eliminate it in every configuration. Duronaut and Duronaut Pro are designed for particularly high long-term stability. If temperatures rise again, also check the contact pattern.

How can I check whether my Aeronaut is genuine, and what should I do if the verification code is invalid?

If your Aeronaut package includes an authentication card, check the code on the official website printed on it. A missing code or different packaging alone does not prove that a product is counterfeit, as package contents and packaging can vary by product and batch. If the code is invalid, send us photos of the product, packaging, code and proof of purchase so we can check them. Whenever possible, buy from a retailer on our reseller list.

Is Aeronaut compatible with my CPU, GPU or cooler combination?

Aeronaut is intended for direct contact between the CPU or GPU and a correctly installed cooler. Conventional thermal pastes can be used on common copper, nickel or aluminum contact surfaces. Follow the cooler manufacturer's instructions. Larger gaps around VRAM or VRMs require suitable pads or putty. The paste is not suitable for bridging gaps larger than 0.2 mm.

Why are temperatures with Aeronaut too high or higher than expected?

First check that the cooler is seated correctly, the mounting pressure is even, the fans or pump are working correctly (for liquid cooling), and the contact surface is fully covered. When reinstalling the cooler, remove old residue and apply a fresh, thin layer of Aeronaut. Compare temperatures at the same room temperature and power consumption. CPU boost can turn improved heat transfer into higher performance rather than lower temperatures. Therefore, always check whether the CPU or GPU clock speed has changed as well.

How do I remove Aeronaut or clean the contact surfaces?

First remove Aeronaut from the surface using a dry, lint-free cloth. Then clean the surface with isopropyl alcohol or a material-compatible TIM cleaner such as TG Remove. TG Cleaning Wipes include both dry wipes and wet wipes soaked in cleaning agents. Keep cleaning agents out of sockets and connectors, and allow all surfaces to dry completely. Use fresh paste when reinstalling the cooler.

What temperature range and extreme conditions is Aeronaut suitable for?

Aeronaut was developed for a temperature range of −150 to +200 °C. This material specification is not a blanket approval for every continuous high-temperature process. For special applications, exposure duration, contact materials, layer thickness and mechanical loads must be assessed separately.

Is Aeronaut electrically conductive, and how do I prevent short circuits?

Aeronaut is not electrically conductive. Nevertheless, only apply the paste to the intended contact surface. Residue in the socket or on connector contacts can interfere with mechanical and electrical contact. The paste is not a certified electrical insulator for high-voltage applications.

Is Aeronaut suitable for laptop CPUs and GPUs?

Aeronaut can be used on CPU and GPU dies in laptops if the cooling system is designed for thermal paste and makes reliable contact. Cover the entire die with a thin layer. Larger gaps around memory and voltage regulators require suitable pads or putty. If pump-out keeps occurring, long-term stability and the specific cooler geometry matter more than a general comparison value. Duronaut or Duronaut Pro are generally better suited to laptops.

Is Aeronaut suitable for direct-die cooling or a delidded CPU?

For direct-die applications such as delidded CPUs, we recommend our high-performance products and specifically liquid metal such as Conductonaut and Conductonaut Extreme.

Can I use Aeronaut in a games console?

Aeronaut is suitable for contact areas in consoles that are designed to use thermal paste. First check the exact console model and the thermal interface materials already in use. The VRAM and VRM pads must remain in place or be replaced with pads of a suitable thickness. A contact area originally designed for liquid metal, such as in a PS5, should not be converted to paste without first checking the cooling design.

How should I store Aeronaut, and how long can an opened or unopened pack be stored?

After use, seal the Aeronaut syringe tightly and store it in its original packaging in a dry place, protected from light and major temperature fluctuations. Shelf life is different from service life once installed in a system. Before using older paste, check it for contamination and unusual consistency. If you are unsure, we can check the batch using photos and purchase details. An unopened tube of Aeronaut has a shelf life of 10 years. Once opened, Aeronaut should be used within 5 years.
