EP30TC is a two-component epoxy that contains a thermally conductive filler with very fine particle sizes. Is a NASA low outgassing certified system that can be used for bonding, coating, sealing and encapsulating. Exhibits a thermal conductivity of 18-20 BTU•in/ft2•hr•°F [2.60-2.88 W/(m•K)] and has the ability to be applied in sections as thin as 5-15µm, resulting in a low thermal resistance of 7-10 x 10-6 K•m2/W. Is a reliable electrical insulator and has a volume resistivity of over 1014 ohm-cm. Is serviceable over temperature range of -100°F to +300°F. Has tensile strength of 5,000-6,000 psi, compressive strength of 24,000-26,000 psi and tensile modulus of 500,000-550,000 psi.

TESE and JTSE precision hot air stations protect printed circuit boards and surrounding components as a result of PH218 control thermocouple. Have two work modes to control airflow and temperature. Can set temperature values and airflow rate manually or by creating up to 25 profiles. User can read temperature at a specific point on the PCB with control thermocouple. Auto-stop function ensures heat is automatically cut off when tool is in the stand. Use extractors, protectors and tripods for desoldering. Include extractor desk.
