Silver Teflon® FEP tape is a high-performance flexible film radiator technology manufactured for space, cryogenic, and optical applications. In spacecraft thermal management systems, SQUID3's Ag/FEP tape is implemented as a Flexible Optical Solar Reflector (FOSR). From LEO small satellites to mega constellations, Ag/FEP tape is optimized for bonding on wide-profiled structural panels. Ag/FEP's on-orbit degradation is well-characterized by NASA, ESA, and JAXA in flight literature.
This product ships with full material traceability and certificate of analysis.
