3M™ Thermally Conductive Interface Silicone Pad 5514
Product Description
Note: The data presented in this preliminary data sheet are 3M’s best estimates for the current product construction being
evaluated. While this product is being developed for general commercialization, this product is still considered
developmental at this time and changes in product construction or process conditions may occur that can cause
subsequent changes in product characteristics or performance. User should consult with 3M before making any
business plans in reliance upon the future availability or the current properties of this product.
3M™ Thermally Conductive Interface Silicone Pad 5514 has good softness for good gap filling performance and reliable
dimensional stability that is useful for complicated pattern making through the die cutting process. The Pad 5514 product
was originally designed to provide a preferential heat transfer path between heat generating components and heat sinks,
heat spreaders or other cooling devices. The Pad 5514 product is a thermally conductive silicone interface pad product and
it consists of a highly conformable and tacky silicone elastomeric sheet filled with thermally conductive ceramic particles
which provide good thermal heat transfer and electrical insulation performance.
Product Uses
This product can be used for heat management of electronic devices and joining/stacking parts in electronic components.

Application Techniques
Positioning and adhesion strength is dependent upon the total amount of surface contact developed. Firm application
pressure helps develop better wetting and improve adhesion.
To obtain optimum thermal conductivity, the wetting surfaces must be maximized. For better contact, clean, dry and well
unified surface condition is recommended. Typical surface cleaning solvents are isopropyl alcohol and water (rubbing
alcohol) or heptane. Note: Be sure to follow manufacturers safety precautions and directions for use when using
solvents.
Ideal application temperature range is from 0°C to 40°C. Initial application to surfaces at temperatures below 0°C is not
recommended because the pad becomes too firm to be wetted readily. However, once properly applied, low temperature
holding is generally satisfactory.
