Why should a heatsink be lapped?Despite stringent manufacturing processes used by most CPU cooler manufacturers, heatsink bases are usually not without minor defects. The goal of most manufacturer's is to provide a smooth and flat surface for maximum contact between the heatsink and the processor. Small grooves, uneven surfaces from sanding and grinding are usually left over from the manufacturing process. Most heatsinks are also left with a fairly rough surface because it is simply too expensive to properly lap the surface of the base to perfection.
How does this kit work?Our heatsink lapping kit will remove fine grooves and scratches and help level uneven surfaces. We include 24 sheets of high quality 2.75" x 4.5" wet or dry silicon carbide sandpaper ranging from 220 grit to 2500 grit roughness. Start off with the 220 grit sandpaper to even out the surface and remove deep grooves and scratches. Working your way slowing up to 2500 grit will provide an ultra smooth and flat surface that will greatly increase any heatsinks performance!
