Lämpöteippejä

Lämpöteippejä, known in English as thermal tape or heat tape, are adhesive strips designed to conduct heat. They are typically made of a flexible material impregnated with thermally conductive particles or a coating that facilitates heat transfer. The primary function of lämpöteippejä is to bridge the gap between a heat-generating component and a heat-dissipating surface, such as a heatsink. This improved thermal interface material (TIM) enhances the efficiency of cooling systems by allowing heat to move more readily away from the source.

These tapes are commonly used in electronic devices, including computers, power supplies, and LED lighting, where managing heat is crucial for performance and longevity. They are also found in automotive applications, industrial equipment, and specialized thermal management solutions. The adhesive properties of lämpöteippejä ensure a secure connection, while their thermal conductivity prevents overheating of sensitive components. They offer a convenient and often cost-effective alternative to thermal paste or pads in certain applications, particularly where ease of application and flexibility are important considerations. The specific thermal conductivity and adhesive strength vary depending on the type of lämpöteippi and its intended use.
