100W Ultra-Narrow Semi-Flexible Solar Panel [FLAXNRB2-100M]

RELIABILITY: Engineered with a strong ETFE coating and fibreglass reinforcement, this panel is significantly more resistant to delamination, cracking, and saltwater corrosion than standard flexible panels.

Key Features

• ✔ Ultra-Narrow Design: Only 350mm wide for tight installations.
• ✔ ETFE Surface: Self-cleaning, anti-reflective, and highly durable.
• ✔ Fibreglass Reinforced: Added strength for walking-on (when bonded).
• ✔ Semi-Flexible: Conforms to curved roofs or boat decks.
• ✔ Marine Grade: Highly resistant to salt water environments.

The panel is fitted with 2 x 1m of 4mm² cross-section UV-resistant solar cable, terminated with waterproof, male/female MC4-compatible connectors. These allow for easy "plug and play" connectivity to your solar charge controller or for linking multiple panels in series or parallel.

For vehicle and marine applications, bonding with a high-quality adhesive (such as Sikaflex 252 or similar) is the recommended method. The panel can also be fixed with screws or bolts if the mounting surface allows, provided the holes are properly sealed to maintain waterproof integrity. Note: This panel must be used with a suitable solar charge controller and should not be connected directly to a battery.

Is this a genuine original part?

This is a premium quality aftermarket solar panel, manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment (OE) standards for durability and efficiency.

Can I walk on this solar panel?

Yes. Because this panel is reinforced with fibreglass, it is strong enough to be walked on when it is properly bonded to a solid, flat, or slightly curved surface. This makes it ideal for the decks of yachts and narrowboats.

What is the benefit of the ETFE coating?

ETFE (Ethylene Tetrafluoroethylene) is a high-strength plastic that is highly resistant to UV, salt water, and extreme temperatures. It also features a textured surface that reduces reflection and increases light absorption, even in cloudy UK conditions.
