3M Thermally Conductive Silicone Interface Pad 5516S is the same as 3M Pad 5516 but with a polymeric permanent film on 1 side for ease of reworking an assembly. Thermal Conductivity and Impedance slightly changes, dielectric strength is improved.
- Good thermal conductivity (3.1 w/m-K)
- Good softness and is conformable at low pressure ( Shore 00 =72)
- Softness results in low stress on board components
- Good dielectric properties
- “S” version incorporates a thin polymeric film carrier for improved handling and a non-tacky surface for ease of rework
- Slight tack allows pre-assembly

PRODUCT FAQ
-
What is 3M™ Thermally Conductive Interface Pad Sheet 5516S used for?
The 3M™ Thermally Conductive Interface Pad Sheet 5516S is ideal for transferring heat away from electronic components and/or cooling devices in various applications.
-
How many pieces are there per case of the 3M™ Thermally Conductive Interface Pad Sheet 5516S?
There are a total of forty (40) sheets in each case, measuring at 320 mm x 230 mm with a thickness of approximately1.0mm.
-
Is the product easy to use and apply?
Absolutely! The material is flexible yet sturdy enough to be easily cut or trimmed into any shape required. It features an adhesive on one side that bonds securely to substrates even under minimal pressure-contact.
-
How does this sheet compare against traditional thermal interface materials like greases and compounds?
; Compared to traditional materials such as pastes, pads, gap fillers or grease, our thermally conductive tape offers lower stress on component interfaces by providing less bulk while its superior bonding ability ensures reliable adhesion over time .
-
Q:Is this product safe for sensitive electronics components upon application?
A:The products' design takes into consideration cautious performance requirements within consumer electronics meaning it won’t cause damage during surface mount procedures while also ensuring efficient heat transfer capabilities
3M™ Thermally Conductive Silicone Interface Pad 5516S has a soft pad that conforms to uneven substrates, providing excellent wettability to fill gaps for improved thermal performance. The "S" supporting layer (permanent film carrier) has a non-tacky surface, providing excellent workability, puncture resistance, and the flexibility to rework materials. The thin, firm, low-tack layer provides easy handling for pre-assembly and die-cutting. This pad provides robust thermal management for applications in a variety of market segments, such as consumer electronics, automotive, LED lighting, medical devices, communication infrastructure, and aerospace & defense.
Recommended Applications:
- Heat transfer between PCB and heat sink
- Integrated chip (IC) packaging heat conduction
- Chip on film (COF) heat dissipation
- Gap filling in electronic devices
- Decrease of compression stress to electronic parts by thermal pad softness
Examples:
- LED displays
- Electric vehicle (EV) batteries
- Wireless charging units
- Satellite navigation
- Sensors
- Process control equipment
- Test & measurement devices
