Manufacturing Technology & Metallurgy
UltraCool III heat sinks are forged from pure aluminum, a highly conductive alloy that is up to 100 percent more conductive than AL 380 (a common casting alloy), and up to 40 percent more conductive then AL6061 (a common extrusion alloy).
The nature of the cold forging process ensures that no air bubbles, cavities or any other impurities will exist within the product or on its exterior.
