Correct Installation Method of Silicone Gasket
Silicone gasket is widely used in electronic products, mainly for insulation and shock absorption. However, many consumers do not use silicone gaskets or operate them improperly, which not only has no effect but also damages the silicone gaskets. So, how to use silicone gaskets? Next, let's learn about it with the editor of Ruichangxing.
Firstly, the silicone pad surface should be kept clean to avoid sticking dirt, which can lead to poor self-adhesion and sealing thermal conductivity.
Secondly, when taking a large area of thermal conductive silicone pad, it should be taken from the center, as the uneven force on the large silicone pad can cause deformation and affect subsequent operations.
Thirdly, when using, one should hold the sheet with their left hand and tear off one side of the protective film with their right hand. Do not remove both protective films at the same time. To reduce the number and area of direct contact with the silicone pad, ensure that the self adhesive and thermal conductivity of the silicone pad are not damaged.
Fourthly, remove the protective film from the side facing the radiator. When aligning the silicone pad with the radiator and slowly lowering it. Be careful to avoid the generation of bubbles. When removing the protective film on the other side and placing it in the radiator, the force should be small to avoid pulling or pulling up the silicone pad.
Fifth, if bubbles are generated during the operation, tools can be used to gently remove the bubbles, but the force should not be too large to avoid damage to the thermal conductive silicone pad. You can also pull up the silicone pad and repeat the above steps to perform the operation again.
Sixth, after tightening or using a strong adhesive silicone gasket, apply a certain amount of pressure to the radiator and store it for a period of time to ensure that the silicone gasket is fixed properly.
