BERGQUIST GAP FILLER TGF 3010APS is a non-silicone 2K gap filler from Henkel Bergquist, rated 3.0 W/m·K. Typical uses: Automotive power storage (EV battery); silicone-sensitive applications; high dispense rate processes. Short answer: we dispense it with a PDP two-component progressive cavity metering pump with a static mixer.

How we dispense it
For a two-component gap filler we start with a PDP two-component progressive cavity metering pump and a disposable static mixer, fed from dual cartridges for lab and low volume, or from pails with a follower-plate pail pump for production. Pump size depends on your shot or bead size and cycle time.
- Abrasion: the ceramic filler that carries the heat wears pumps out. We use tungsten carbide rotors and wear-resistant stators and run the pump slowly, at 8 to 12 rpm, for long wear life.
- Ratio: each side is metered by its own progressive cavity pump to within ±1%. Check ratio by weighing a shot from each side every week, because filled materials vary from batch to batch.
- Mixing: a disposable static mixer does the mixing. Purge or change it before the material's working life runs out.
- Dispense pattern: gap fillers are squeezed between the part and the housing, so the pattern (dots, lines or a star) decides coverage and whether air gets trapped.

Frequently asked questions
What pump should I use to dispense BERGQUIST GAP FILLER TGF 3010APS?
For a two-component gap filler we start with a PDP two-component progressive cavity metering pump and a disposable static mixer, fed from dual cartridges for lab and low volume, or from pails with a follower-plate pail pump for production. Pump size depends on your shot or bead size and cycle time; send us those and we will size it.
Can BERGQUIST GAP FILLER TGF 3010APS be fed from pails instead of cartridges?
Henkel Bergquist lists these packages: Cartridges 200 cc, 400 cc, 1200 cc; pail kits 6 gal, 10 gal; drum kits 120 L. Cartridges suit lab and low volume. Above that, a follower-plate pail pump feeds the metering pump directly, which cuts container changes and waste.
How do you keep BERGQUIST GAP FILLER TGF 3010APS on ratio?
Each side is metered by its own progressive cavity pump, held to within ±1% per side. We recommend a weekly check: weigh a shot from each side and adjust, because filled materials vary from batch to batch.
Will BERGQUIST GAP FILLER TGF 3010APS wear out the pump?
Thermally conductive fillers are abrasive. With tungsten carbide rotors, wear-resistant stators and pump speeds of 8 to 12 rpm, stators typically last 6 to 12 months and rotors up to 24 months, and a pump rebuild takes under an hour.
