Kool KlipsTM Standard Kool Klips
|
These one-piece stainless steel clips eliminate the need
for screws, lock washers and nuts in the assembly
process, therefore reducing assembly time and cost.
The ends of the Kool-KlipTM insert into predetermined
positions while its spring action body securely holds the
semiconductor in place.
Each Kool-KlipTM has been designed to correspond to a particular heat sink or
family of heat sinks.

|
Thermal Clips Factory Applied Thermal Clips
|
|
These factory applied thermal clips eliminate the need to use screws and nuts in assembling the heat sink and transistor.
They have an internal tab to secure the transistor permanently in place.
|
|
|
Female and Male Mounts
|
|
Semiconductor Mounts secure the heat sinks to
semiconductors via machine screws or nuts. When used with
a self-feeding screw driver it is up to 10 times faster
than fastening with standard nuts and bolts. They are
used with most JEDEC case sizes, factory installed.

Clinch Nuts
|
|
Clinch nuts are threaded nuts that allow quick assembly of the transistor to the heat sink. A single screw mounts the transistor
to the heat sink, reducing your hardware requirements. Clinch nuts are permanently presses into the heat sink, and come in a variety of English and Metric threads-CNE designates an English thread, and CNM designates a Metric thread.

Solderable Studs
|
 |
Solderable studs are permanently swaged into the heat sink for quick
preassembly with the transistor.
The device is placed over the stud(s) followed by the lock washer and nut.
The entire component is then dropped into plated-thru holes in the PC
board.

SE6 stud has nominal standoff of
±.25mm (.010) and is considered a flush
mount.
* Dimension and tolerance apply to
stud only, not spacing between heat sink
and PC board.

Add the three character suffix after the model number.

a=Model Number
c=Stud Number
Note:
To specify the number of solderable studs required in some models (i.e., 6060, 6061, 6072, and 6080), add the number of
studs after the solderable stud suffix as follows: 6072B-SE3/1 for one stud and 6072B-SE3/2 for two studs.
