Delid-Die-Mate WS 3647 – CPU-delidding- en IHS-verwijderingsgereedschap van der8auer

The Delid-Die-Mate WS 3647 CPU delidding and IHS removal tool by der8auer is a precision mechanical instrument created for safely separating the integrated heat spreader (IHS) from compatible desktop CPU packages. It provides a controlled clamping and cutting action that reduces the risk of accidental damage compared with improvised methods, and is intended for tasks such as repasting, applying liquid metal, or other advanced cooling modifications performed by experienced users.

Advantages

The tool offers precise alignment and adjustable pressure to minimize stress on the CPU die and substrate during IHS removal. Its solid construction ensures repeatable results and stable operation when working with compatible Intel and AMD desktop processors. By using a purpose-built device, users can achieve clean separation of the IHS while reducing the chance of uneven cuts, bent contacts, or contaminant ingress that can occur with non-specialized tools.

Suitable for

• Delidding desktop CPUs to replace thermal interface material or apply liquid metal
• Advanced CPU cooling upgrades and performance tuning
• CPU maintenance and repair by experienced technicians or enthusiasts
• Laboratory or workshop environments where controlled IHS removal is required

Key specifications

• Precision adjustable clamping mechanism for controlled pressure
• Rigid frame to ensure stable alignment during operation
• Compatibility with multiple desktop CPU package sizes (refer to manufacturer compatibility list)
• Durable metal construction for repeated professional use
• Fine adjustment screws for accurate positioning and depth control

How to use

Secure the CPU in the tool’s clamping area according to the supplied orientation guides, visually aligning the IHS with the cutting or separation element. Gradually apply pressure using the adjustment mechanism while verifying alignment and observing for any unusual resistance. Once the IHS separates from the package, lift the IHS away and inspect the die and substrate for damage before proceeding with cleaning and repasting. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and safety recommendations closely, and only perform delidding on CPUs for which this tool is specified as compatible.

Recommendations

Use the tool in a static-safe workspace, wear appropriate eye protection, and work slowly to avoid sudden movement. After delidding, clean surfaces with suitable solvents and apply recommended thermal interface materials. The tool is intended for users with prior experience in CPU handling; improper use can permanently damage the processor.
