SPACE ARMOR™ Tiles | Atomic-6 | Composite Space Debris Impact Shielding Tiles – Atomic-6

Protecting space assets

Space Armor™ tiles are engineered to absorb hypervelocity impacts while minimizing the secondary debris emission.

Front, side, and back views of the Space Armor™ Lite tile (30cm x 30cm x 2cm), tested with a 3mm projectile traveling at 7.2 km/s, showing minimum deformation on the back side.

Maximum protection. Minimal ejection.

Lighter, stronger, smarter.

• All-composite structure

• Lighter and more compact than legacy shielding options

• Custom sizing upon request (up to 1m x 1m)

• Durable against atomic oxygen (AO) and vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) exposure

• Space Armor™ Lite shields against hypervelocity impacts of particles up to 3mm in diameter

• Space Armor™ Max shields against hypervelocity impacts of particles up to 12.5mm in diameter

• Shield tested at 7.2 km/s projectile impact for Micrometeoroid and Orbital Debris (MMOD)

Don’t leave Earth without it.

• Protects against all untrackable debris (≤3mm)

• Protects against >90% of debris in LEO

• Minimizes secondary debris creation

• Minimal back side deformation, outperforming state-of-the-art shields

• Tile approach simplifies integration and design
