Image of Boyd's Copper Skived Fin Heat Sinks Boyd introduces their high-performance, copper, skived-fin heat sinks which feature locking Shurlock pins, offering improved reliability for higher weight solutions compared to traditional metal or plastic-pin attachment methods.

Copper has the highest thermal conductivity of all of the commercial metals (nearly twice of aluminum) which can significantly improve spreading heat from small components for the best possible performance within the allowable space constraints. These are manufactured by accurately peeling fins from a bar of solid copper to form a near-finished part. The fins are an integral part of the base plate with no solder or other interface joint. This allows for optimal thermal performance within the parameters of the application.

Shurlock Pins' Attachment Features

Brass material allows for easy insertion and locking in one or two steps
Easy removal from top and bottom of PCB through unlocking feature
Secure for over-sized aluminum and heavy copper heat sinks
Metal body increases resilience to high-temperature pull out
A strong barb-end will not wear like plastic pins

Spring-loaded pins support larger spring loads than traditional push pins
Standard “grip lengths” available for custom heat sinks and over a wide range of device and PCB thickness
Implemented in production through major contract manufactures
