Discover the Minus Pad Basic 2.0mm
Derived from the reliable Minus Pad 8 formula, the Minus Pad Basic series offers dependable thermal transfer at great value. These pads ensure effective heat dissipation from various components, including M.2 SSDs, graphics card memory/VRMs (on air or water coolers), motherboard chipsets, and other heat-generating ICs. The Minus Pad Basic 2.0mm thickness is particularly useful for applications with significant height differences between the component and the heatsink.

Using these pads is straightforward. Simply cut the large 100x100mm sheet to the required shape and size for your specific component. While the Basic series has slightly lower compressibility compared to Thermal Grizzly’s Advance and Pro pads, the Minus Pad Basic 2.0mm still conforms adequately to bridge gaps effectively. Moreover, safety during installation is guaranteed as these pads are completely electrically non-conductive. Explore compatible graphics cards or M.2 SSDs here.
Thermal Grizzly’s Minus Pad Basic line provides quality thermal solutions without breaking the bank. This package contains two large 100x100x2.0mm pads, offering ample material for multiple components or larger application areas, making the Minus Pad Basic 2.0mm an excellent value choice for builders needing this specific thickness.
