Measuring 100 x 100 x 1.0 mm and stackable up to 2.0 mm without performance loss, it bridges uneven gaps with minimal thermal resistance. Its electrically insulating, vibration-damping, and moldable properties make it perfect for high-end PCs, laptops, consoles, and graphic cards, ensuring safer, cleaner, and more efficient cooling solutions. ## Description Product Description High Performance - very soft Based on silicone and a special filler, TP-3 also outperforms high-performance pads, especially when height differences of closely spaced chips typically occur due to manufacturing tolerances. The TP-3 offers excellent thermal conductivity despite extremely low hardness. Minimization of thermal resistance The thinner the pad, the lower the termal resistance. The TP-3 pad with a thickness of 0.5 mm can easily be compressed to 0.3 mm and thus compensate for height differences between various components of up to 0.2 mm. Please note that due to the extremely low hardness, the installation of the 0.5 mm pad requires extra care. Please refer to the user manual. Versatile Applications Heat-conducting, vibration-damping, mouldable, electrically insulating - safe and easy to use. Thanks to its good compression properties, the soft heat conduction pad is particularly gentle on components and at the same time a good heat conductor. In addition to the standard format for M.2, the TP-3 is available in various sizes and thicknesses, which can be easily cut to the desired shape and size. This makes it ideal for RAMs, chipsets and ICs of all kinds, which are used in PCs, laptops, consoles, graphics cards and electronic devices in general. Safe handling The ARCTIC TP-3 is electrically insulating, non-adhesive and easy to handle. This means that optimal and safe heat transfer can be ensured in many application areas. Bridging gaps The TP-3 are softer than conventional pads and therefore particularly suitable for different chip heights and possible tolerances. Thanks to their good compressibility properties, the thermal pads act as the perfect gap filler and bridges uneven surface and air gaps without stressing sensitive and protruding components. Available in different thicknesses and sizes Our thermal pads are available in a choice of 0.5 mm, 1.0 mm and 1.5 mm. The 0.5 mm variant is ideally suited as an alternative to heat-conducting foil. The pads are available in different dimensions, depending on their thickness. If required, the pads can also be independently cut to any size. Stackable without Performance Loss The ARCTIC TP-3 thermal pads can be stacked particularly well due to their softness and low Interfacial Contact Resistance. This allows for flexible adaptation to various application requirements and the bridging of different thicknesses without compromising the efficiency of heat transfer. In contrast, harder pads often lose performance when stacked. Review: Good Quality, Easily Layer-able, Would use again! - Used one pack of the 0.5mm, 1.5mm and 2mm pads while overhauling my RTX2080. They were all uniformly excellent quality, with the right amount of stickiness and firmness. After the overhauling (including replacing the paste with Arctic MX4) my card went from up to 98 degrees Celsius at max to 87 max (with a higher hotspot). It also took almost all of each of the three packets to replace all the pads; this almost certainly won't be needed unless you are effectively practising like I was but it gives an idea as to the amounts needed. (I did look up the thicknesses on a blueprint for my particular card and had to layer the thicknesses.....which as Arctic say is both east and effective ). Easy to install with patience and a sharp craft knife to cut them and I'm happy with the performance improvement. Review: Price, size of thermal pad, making a job that can be messy into a clean one! - Last Time I used thermal paste was back 15 years ago trying to get rid of the red ring of death on Xbox. It was messy and really hard to apply (me being a amateur thermal paste user) to cover the processor in depth and all corners covered. This pad is a game changer its literally this simple. Clean processor with alcohol carefully clean heatsink measure processor cut to fit, take of shiny protective sheet apply to processor and then proceed to take of diamond sheet this one was 1mm thick if you need bigger use two pieces. A complete novice here and this has stopped my pc from throttling this stuff works I have no problems with heat dissipation now. Also there is enough here to reapply many times the size for the price is unbelievable simply because it takes the mess away and makes it easy for novice's like me. Delivered very quick. ## Features - PLEASE NOTE: Due to the extremely low hardness of thermally conductive pads, a more demanding installation is to be expected. Please refer to the User Manual - MINIMIZATION OF THERMAL RESISTANCE: The thinner the pad, the lower the thermal resistance. Thanks to its good compression properties, the very soft heat conduction pad is particularly a good heat conductor - HIGH PERFORMANCE: Based on silicone and a special filler, TP-3 also outperforms high-performance pads, especially when height differences of closely spaced chips - VERSATILE APPLICATIONS: Heat-conducting, vibration-damping, mouldable, electrically insulating - can be easily cut to size. Ideal for RAM, chipset, IC in PC, laptop, console, graphic cards - SAFE HANDLING: The pad contains no metal particles, is electrically insulating and non-capacitive. Handling is therefore safe, as contact with electrical parts will not cause damage ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09V53JVCS | | Are Batteries Included | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 4,635 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 6 in Thermal Pads | | Brand | ARCTIC | | Colour | blue | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (2,242) | | Date First Available | 9 Mar. 2022 | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Item Weight | 10 g | | Item model number | ACTPD00053A | | Manufacturer | ARCTIC | | Product Dimensions | 10 x 10 x 0.1 cm; 10 g | ## Images ![TP-3: Premium Performance Thermal Pad, 100 x 100 x 1.0 mm, (stackable to 2.0 mm without performance loss), 1 Piece - High Performance, particularly soft, ideal gap filler, bridging gaps - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41TUBnx3U7L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is it adhesive in any way?** A: One side is very sticky and fragile **Q: Is there a thermal pad for the Intel i9-13900KS?** A: A thermal pad is not suitable for the CPU. Please use a thermal compound such as Arctic MX-6. **Q: Can this be used in a kydex holster press as a clamping cushion to get a uniform mold around differet shape objects?** A: I mean, yea.....but there's probably better alternatives.? The real question is.......y tho? lol. Probably better off with self adhesive cushioning pads (assuming you're looking for a plastic/steel buffer) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Quality, Easily Layer-able, Would use again! *by J***. on 13 October 2025* Used one pack of the 0.5mm, 1.5mm and 2mm pads while overhauling my RTX2080.

Thermal conductivity is far superior to the stock thermal putty. Pads can easily be cut to size using a craft knife and are reusable if you are careful with removal. 1.5mm is the correct thickness for Xbox series and Xbox one consoles. Great cost Vs performance. Cannot be used on the APU die itself, only for RAM, VRMs, SSD and expansion card areas. Also available on Amazon is Artic MX-6 which is great for the APU and bottles of isopropyl alcohol 99.9% for thoroughly removing the old paste/putty from all locations. ## Frequently Bought Together - ARCTIC TP-3: Premium Performance Thermal Pad, 100 x 100 x 1.0 mm (Stackable to 2.0 mm Without Performance Loss), 1 Piece - High Performance, Particularly Soft, Ideal Gap Filler, Bridging Gaps - ARCTIC MX-6 (4 g) - Ultimate Performance Thermal Paste for CPU, Consoles, Graphics Cards, laptops, Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Non-Conductive - ARCTIC MX-6 (4 g, incl. 6 MX Cleaner) - Ultimate Performance Thermal Paste for CPU, Consoles, Graphics Cards, laptops, Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Non-Conductive --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/442078167-tp-3-premium-performance-thermal-pad-100-x-100-x](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/442078167-tp-3-premium-performance-thermal-pad-100-x-100-x) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-27*
