THERMAL GRIZZLY PUTTY BASIC 30 G

THERMAL GRIZZLY PUTTY BASIC 30 G – Flexible Thermal Gap Filler for GPUs

Thermal Grizzly Putty Basic 30 G is a flexible, electrically non-conductive thermal gap filler designed as an alternative to conventional thermal pads, particularly for graphics card cooling applications. Developed by Thermal Grizzly, Putty Basic provides a practical solution for replacing thermal pads on GPUs where different pad thicknesses are normally required.

Unlike traditional thermal pads, which are available in fixed thicknesses, Thermal Grizzly Putty Basic can be shaped and applied according to the specific contact area. It is designed to compensate for height differences between the PCB and cooler, making it especially useful for GPU modifications, thermal pad replacement, and custom cooling projects.

Flexible Alternative to Traditional Thermal Pads

Graphics cards commonly use thermal pads with different thicknesses across areas such as VRAM, VRM, MOSFETs, and other components. When replacing the original thermal pads, users may need several different pad thicknesses to achieve proper contact.

Thermal Grizzly Putty Basic simplifies this process by acting as a flexible thermal gap filler. It can compensate for height differences from approximately 0.2 mm to 3.0 mm, allowing the material to conform to uneven or varying surfaces.

This makes Putty Basic particularly useful when modifying graphics cards or installing aftermarket GPU cooling solutions where the original thermal pad configuration may no longer be suitable.

Medium Thermal Conductivity for Reliable Cooling

Thermal Grizzly offers the TG Putty series in three variants: Putty Basic, Putty Advance, and Putty Pro. Putty Basic is designed with medium thermal conductivity, making it suitable for applications where a flexible and easy-to-use thermal gap filler is required.

The material helps transfer heat from components to the cooler while maintaining the flexibility required to accommodate different component heights. This can be particularly beneficial when dealing with multiple VRAM chips or VRM components positioned at different levels on a graphics card PCB.

Easy and Versatile Application

One of the key advantages of Thermal Grizzly Putty Basic 30 G is its adjustable application method. The putty can be spread over larger areas using the included spatulas, or it can be manually shaped into smaller pieces to fit individual contact points.

For example, users can form small portions of Putty Basic to match the size of VRAM or SMD components. Gloves are recommended when applying the material by hand. Before application, the target surface should be thoroughly cleaned and degreased using an appropriate cleaning solution such as isopropanol.

This flexible application method makes the product suitable for both experienced PC enthusiasts and technicians working on custom GPU cooling projects.

Ideal for GPU Modifications

Thermal Grizzly Putty Basic is specifically designed for graphics card modifications and thermal pad replacement between the PCB and cooler. It can also be useful when converting a graphics card to a water-cooling solution, where the original thermal pads may not match the dimensions or spacing of the new cooler.

For a smaller graphics card without an active backplate, Thermal Grizzly indicates that approximately one 30 g container may be required. For larger graphics cards, one 30 g container is generally sufficient for the front-side VRAM and VRM areas, while additional material may be required for larger backplate gaps. Actual consumption depends on the design and required gap thickness.

Electrically Non-Conductive Design

Another important feature is that TG Putty Basic is electrically non-conductive. This makes it a practical alternative to conventional thermal pads in applications around sensitive electronic components.

However, correct application remains important. The product should only be used for its intended thermal gap-filling applications, and the manufacturer specifically states that TG Putty is not suitable for use on processors, IHS, Direct Die applications, or directly on the GPU die.

30 g Packaging with Spatulas Included

The Thermal Grizzly Putty Basic 30 G package includes the thermal putty and three TG Spatula Pro tools, providing the necessary accessories for spreading and shaping the material during installation. The product is identified by MPN TG-P-B-030 and EAN 4260711991196.
