BERGQUIST SIL PAD TSP K1300 is the high performance

insulator developed in conjunction with DuPont. BERGQUIST

SIL PAD TSP K1300 combines special Kapton MT Polyimide

film with boron nitride filled silicone rubber. The result is a

product with good cut-through properties and excellent thermal

performance.

BERGQUIST SIL PAD TSP K1300 is designed to replace

ceramic insulators such as Beryllium Oxide, boron Nitride and

Alumina. These insulators are expensive and they break easily.

BERGQUIST SIL PAD TSP K1300 eliminates breakage and

costs much less than ceramics.
