Lightning Can Puncture a Radome
With Inadequate Lightning Protection
A poor quality lightning protection system exposes an aircraft to serious risk.
Our lightning diverters are built tough.
We use high-tech materials, advanced engineering and demand the highest quality manufacturing processes.
StrikeTape is what forward-thinking engineers choose for their radomes.
Static Buildup Can Damage
Fuselage-Mounted Antennas.
Our anti-static lightning diverters, developed in collaboration with Airbus, prevent damage from lightning and static build-up.
Traditional diverter strips without anti-static technology may actually cause damage by discharging static electricity into the antenna and burning out the transmitter. The new Weather Guard - Airbus anti-static diverter strips solve this problem, protecting against such discharges by continuously bleeding static charge.
Even Low-Energy Strikes Can Cause
Significant Damage to a Nose Radome
Small lightning strikes can put an aircraft down for repairs and send engineers scrambling.
A well-designed lightning protection system is critical for keeping an aircraft flying at peak efficiency.
In addition to the design, high-quality segmented lightning diverters are crucial for withstanding extreme temperatures, rain erosion and repeated lightning events.
The Ultra-Durable Lightning Diverter
That Works on Any Radome
Resistant to Rain Erosion
Rain erosion is a major reason traditional lightning protection fails. StrikeTape thrives in tough conditions.
High-Tech Materials
StrikeTape is manufactured using proprietary materials for high-tech performance and extended life.
Gold Plated for Durability
Gold-plating on StrikeTape means additional wear-resistance and protection in all conditions.

Easy Three-Step Installation
STEP 1
Clean the Surface
We'll show you how to do it properly in our videos and PDF guides.
STEP 2
Peel & Stick
Just peel off the adhesive backing and apply to the radome.
STEP 3
Apply Edge Sealant
Our sealants set fast, won't run and don't require oven curing.
