Premium thermal compound for CPUs and GPUs

Prolimatech PK-1 is a non-conductive, non-corrosive thermal paste designed for processor and graphics-card coolers. The 5 g syringe provides enough material for multiple applications on desktop or laptop hardware. Its aluminium and zinc-oxide formula resists drying out, maintaining consistent heat transfer over long periods.

Thermals, noise and power draw

The compound contains 60–85 wt% aluminium, 15–25 wt% zinc oxide, 12–20 wt% oil and 0.5–2 wt% antioxidant for stable thermal conductivity. Low dry-out characteristics keep interface resistance steady, so cooler fans do not need to spin faster to compensate. Being electrically non-conductive, it poses no short-circuit risk if it contacts PCB traces or pins.

Build integration and practical notes

The paste spreads easily with a spatula or the cooler base itself, reducing waste during installation. Annual reapplication is recommended by the manufacturer to sustain peak performance. The 5 g volume suits builders who service several systems, while the non-corrosive nature protects copper, aluminium and nickel-plated cold plates alike.

Questions about this item

How do I apply the 5 g PK-1 paste without wasting it?

Squeeze a small drop onto the centre of the CPU heat-spreader; the non-conductive aluminium-zinc oxide formula spreads thinly under cooler pressure so you use less than traditional greases.

When should I plan to reapply PK-1 thermal compound?

The manufacturer recommends yearly reapplication to maintain top condition because the oil carrier can slowly migrate even with the low-dry-out antioxidant blend.

What limits sustained heat transfer before the paste itself degrades?

The 12–20 wt% oil carrier is the first element to migrate during long high-temperature cycles, gradually reducing the compound's ability to fill microscopic gaps between CPU and heatsink.
