Kelindide

Kelindide is a material used by the Cardassians in the construction of their space stations and starships.

The core sections of Terok Nor/Deep Space 9 are made of thirty-one percent kelindide. The habitat ring and docking ring consists of forty-five percent kelindide. The docking pylons and crossover bridges are manufactured from twenty-six percent kelindide. The hull plating of the station is made from kelindide, polyduranium, rodinium and toranium. 

In 2370, Kira Nerys and Miles O'Brien detected kelindide in the wreckage of the Bok'Nor.
