Just keeping things simple for the average DIY'er :) I can change my vernacular. Just thought I'd mention since you made note of the PVC comment. ![]() However, I suggest mylar as the likely material because of its very high tolerance/resistance to high heat. The older pieces like this in previous models were similar to this material. It is thick, non-pliable, and doesn't need to tolerate the kind of heat that is under the heatsink. The older ones, and the piece that goes over the integrated GPU (not the discrete w/ the heatsink) is most likely a pvc deriv. If you want to be technical, I believe the new ones (not the thick older ones) are made of a version of mylar or mylar blend. I can send you a diagram of that if you need it. They usually stick to the "tape," but will occasionally stay on the CPU or fall off, requiring you to place them back into their proper placement. Small black pieces down by the ESD kapton tape. TAKE NOTE: the CPU tape has small additional "strips" with adhesive on all four sides. You also run the risk of damaging the components on the chips. Without this tape layer, you will likely fail a heatsink/CPU sensor test. This "tape" layer also helps regulate the even pressure applied across the chips and their sensors (this is tested with ASD software from Apple to determine whether or not the heat sink is set in place properly). FibaTape® self-adhesive Cement Board tape is specifically designed for cement board finishing. It helps prevent the heat sink from damaging those bits (metal to components) while allowing the chips' "face" to touch or come within close proximity (with thermal grease) of the heat sink without damage. Shop Saint-Gobain ADFORS FibaTape Alkali-Resistant 2-in x 150-ft Mesh Construction Self-adhesive Cement Board Tape in the Drywall Tape department at Lowe's.com. This pvc tape-like layer offers protection from the surface components on the GPU and CPU (note the bumps and small soldered on bits on both the GPU and CPU). Tapes Master - 1/2' x 36 Yds - 1 Mil Kapton Tape Polyimide High Temp Tapes with Silicone Adhesive - 3 Core - for 3D Printer Surface, Soldering, Insulation and Bonding - No Residue 8.95 8. Granted, this plethora comes from multiple models, but this should clear things up. ![]() These are the bits of "tape" to which you refer I gather. Paul - just trying to offer a bit of assistance with visuals.
