Arrowhead Thermal Products, Inc. has introduced a new thermally-conductive, electrically-insulative, pressure-sensitive adhesive (TC PSA) called POWERtach™QT. POWERtach QT eliminates the need for mechanical fasteners like clips or screws and all of the processes required to use them. POWERtach QT also replaces the thermally-conductive silicone insulators used to isolate the device from the heat sink.

The assembly process is simple: just laminate the POWERtach QT to the heat sink, locate the device onto the heat sink and apply pressure for 5-10 seconds. Multi devices can be laminated at once. As labor costs continue to increase, the POWERtach QT adhesive can reduce your overall cost of production.

POWERtach QT comes in three different levels of thermal transfer performance and they are UL 94 V-0 flame rated. Arrowhead Thermal Products has a range of TC PSA’s sold into the power converting and LED lighting markets.
