Yes. These SteelSeries Arctis 9 cooling gel ear pads are designed to fit the Arctis 9 gaming headset and provide a secure replacement for worn or flattened ear cushions.

What are cooling gel ear pads?

Cooling gel ear pads include a thermally conductive gel layer placed above the memory foam core. This layer helps dissipate heat and keeps the ear cushions cooler during gaming sessions.

Cooling gel ear pads help reduce perceived heat and distribute warmth more evenly. Many designs combine gel with memory foam and breathable fabric to maintain comfort during extended gaming sessions.
