Unlocking the Secrets of 54mm High-Power Rocketry

Ғылым және технология

Let's take a closer look at 54mm hardware commonly utilized in high-power rocketry. The aluminum motor case and graphite nozzle are designed for reusability, making them an ideal combination for experimental (EX) sugar motors.

    If you make the nozzles out of 303 stainless steel, it will last a lifetime. It doesn't chip or crack like graphite, is easy to machine...similar to 6061 aluminum, and will survive CATOs. I have one 75mm 303 that has over 40 firings including 2 CATOs and is good as new. And they are now approved for Tripoli research flights. Your Harbor Freight lathe will easily machine 29, 38, and 54mm 303 nozzles...maybe even a 75mm. Just remember that a stainless steel nozzle will melt using apcp (sugar burns cooler).

    Your information on stainless steel is fantastic; good graphite can be quite expensive! I haven't attempted to turn steel on my Harbor Freight lathe because I anticipated it would be frustrating.

    You could probably make a rocket nozzle out of tree stump wood since it’s so damn hard to burn !

    Powdered ethanol would probably work but it is very regulated in many states. Testing unknown fuels can be hazardous, proceed with great caution.

    I have a 7x10 that I bought used, it came with two sets of jaws for the 3" chuck.
