ABSTRACT:
A grease applicator is assembled from three parts, a base unit, a cap unit and a slider unit. The base unit has tenons that couple with corresponding slots in the cap unit to form a cavity with a window opening on a first surface and a slider opening on a second surface where a plane parallel to the second surface is perpendicular to a plane parallel to the first surface. A slider unit is inserted into the slider opening and forms a top surface to the window opening and forming a window cavity for containing a predetermined amount and volumetric shape of grease. The grease applicator is applied to a heat sink with the grease in the window cavity contacting a surface of the heat sink. The slider unit is extracted while pressure is applied to a surface of the grease applicator applying a uniform volume of grease.
