Sorry Jay. I did not try to order the material. I walked down to my workshop and found the material that I have used. It is call Silver Ice 710 and is made by Timtronics out of NY. I had the stuff for a long time. It is a gray grease and is not a change phase material. I looked at the cut sheets on the Loctite and the Silver Ice 710. Looks like the Silver Ice has a better electrical and thermal conductivity than the Loctite. Tomorrow I will call my old company and get contact for Loctite.

Unfortunately, when I tried to order, it turns out they are not in stock, have a minimum 53 piece order quantity, and a 5-6 week shipping delay. [I also didn't know how many I'd need, because the 1.57 x 1.57 size does not have any units on it, so I didn't know if it was mm, cm, or inches.] Ideally if I was to use Silverstrate, I'd like to buy pre-cut TO-220 and TO-247 sized pads for the MOSFETS and DIODES.
