Q: What is the difference between K-8 and K-9?
A: K-9 (14.5 W/m·K) is designed for maximum thermal transfer in extreme overclocking / high-TDP environments. K-8 (9.5 W/m·K) is optimized for general high-performance gaming desktops and laptops where balance of performance and ease-of-use matters.
Q: Is this paste difficult to spread?
A: It has an optimized low viscosity for easy, smooth application with minimal pressure, suitable for standard IHS or direct-die application methods.
Q: Will it dry out over time?
A: Our synthetic formula is engineered for stability; typical service life is 1–2 years under normal continuous operation, and 3–5 years in low-stress environments. (Recommended: check & re-apply per system maintenance policy.)
Q: Is the K-9 safe for laptops with tightly packed internals?
A: Yes — K-9 is formulated as non-electrically conductive and low-corrosive under normal use; avoid deliberate application on bare PCB traces or exposed pads.
Q: Does this thermal paste conduct electricity?
A: No. The K-8 and K-9 formulations are non-electrically-conductive (0 pS/m typical).
Q: What package sizes do you offer?
A: K-8: 1.5g / 2.3g / 2×2.3g; K-9: 2.3g / 2×2.3g. Custom bulk packaging available on request.
