T-Blade Core Materials Bundle

Core materials for the public T-Blade experiment

This bundle brings together core materials used in the public T-Blade construction explained by aerospace engineer Andrew Aurigema. The underlying asymmetrical electrostatic pressure patent names Andrew Neil Aurigema and Charles Raymond Buhler IV as inventors.

The T-Blade shown in the public demonstration is a historical, openly described experimental design. This kit does not represent Exodus Propulsion Technologies' current private designs or performance.

Bundle contents

• One 12 mm × 30 m roll of adhesive polyimide tape.
• One 50 mm × 20 m roll of single-sided adhesive copper foil, approximately 0.05 mm thick.
• One 6 mm × 20 m roll of single-sided adhesive copper foil, approximately 0.05 mm thick.
• 5 m of red 20 AWG silicone-insulated wire with a supplier-stated 40 kV rating.

The wire's 40 kV rating is a supplier statement and has not been independently certified by Solderin.

US delivery

Standard shipping to the United States is included in the bundle price. Components may arrive in separate supplier parcels with separate tracking numbers. Current supplier estimates are approximately 6–14 calendar days, but customs processing and carrier delays can extend delivery. Import duties, taxes and carrier fees are not included unless checkout explicitly says otherwise.

Not included

• Foam or other structural material. Source this locally because the build dimensions and material choice depend on the article.
• Silicone sealant. The public build specifies genuine Aqueon aquarium silicone; source it locally. 
• High-voltage power supply.
• Solder, connection tabs, cutting tools, measuring equipment or personal protective equipment.
• The separate 12–24 mil factory-laminated polyimide separator and 4 mil finishing film required by the detailed multi-stack build. Source these locally.

Important safety information

This is a materials bundle, not a finished device or a beginner electronics kit. High voltage can cause serious injury or death. The source presentation itself warns against attempting the high-voltage work without appropriate expertise, equipment, insulation, interlocks and procedures.

Solderin makes no thrust, propulsion or performance claim for these materials. Patent descriptions, demonstrations and experimental results belong to their respective sources. Buyers are responsible for determining whether the materials are suitable for their intended experiment.
