BERGQUIST SIL PAD TSP K1300 is the high performance
insulator developed in conjunction with DuPont. BERGQUIST
SIL PAD TSP K1300 combines special Kapton MT Polyimide
film with boron nitride filled silicone rubber. The result isa
product with good cut-through properties and excellentthermal
performance.
BERGQUIST SIL PAD TSP K1300 is designed to replace
ceramic insulators such as Beryllium Oxide, boron Nitrideand
Alumina. These insulators are expensive and they breakeasily.
BERGQUIST SIL PAD TSP K1300 eliminates breakage and
costs much less than ceramics.
