This aluminium heatsink is designed specifically for the Raspberry Pi 5, aligning with its board dimensions and mounting holes for a precise fit. Made from lightweight aluminium with good thermal conductivity, it draws heat away from the processor to help prevent thermal throttling under sustained workloads.
Installation is tool-free — apply the included thermal pads to the key components, place the heatsink, and secure it with the spring-loaded push pins.

- Aluminium Construction – Lightweight (29 g) with effective heat dissipation
- Corrosion Resistant – Oxidation-resistant finish for long-term durability
- Tool-Free Installation – Spring-loaded push pins for quick, secure mounting
- Thermal Pads Included – Three pads for efficient heat transfer from key components
Package Contents
- 1× Aluminium heatsink for Raspberry Pi 5
- 3× Thermal pads
- Spring-loaded push pins
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- microSD card
- A microSD card is a small removable memory card used to store files such as audio tracks. For this product, the card is where the sound files live, so its capacity and formatting can affect how many sounds you can use.
- thermal throttling
- Thermal throttling is when a processor automatically slows down because it is getting too hot. A case designed to reduce throttling can help a small computer maintain performance during heavier tasks.
