Thermal Grizzly Hydronaut Pro Thermal Paste - 6g

Hydronaut Pro is a silicone-free thermal paste with an optimized composition, suitable for use in both industrial systems and high-performance PC systems. Thanks to its outstanding thermal conductivity, it is particularly ideal for applications with large-surface heat sinks, such as gaming PCs with custom water cooling. Hydronaut Pro combines high performance with an attractive price-performance ratio and is also designed for overclocking applications.

The Hydronaut Pro thermal paste has a silicone-free carrier structure. Many thermal pastes use silicone-based oils (e.g. siloxanes) as carrier fluids or as part of the matrix. Under thermal stress, especially with temperature fluctuations, changes in the paste can occur, such as bleeding and displacement of the paste from the contact zone. Repeated temperature changes and micro-movements between the CPU IHS and the cooler base can intensify this effect.

The mechanical displacement of the paste from the contact surface is referred to as the pump-out effect. In normal PC use, this is usually uncritical. However, in industrial applications, silicone-based oils leaking out can be undesirable, especially if adjacent materials or sealing materials (e.g. certain EPDM or NBR seals) are incompatible with silicone oils. This can lead to swelling or changes in material properties. The product is RoHS-compliant and designed as an easy-to-apply thermal interface material for demanding users.
