Description

These 3D printed 3/16 inch launch lugs feature Rocketry Works' unique mounting system that works with either wood glue or epoxy!  These will stick well to a rough paper paper tube, so you may need to sand away any glossy finish on the tube at the mount point. Then, you just need to fill the glue pockets in the launch lug foot with wood glue or epoxy, and make sure that the adhesive bulges up through the holes in the foot to form a "mushroom cap" on top of the foot. This creates a strong anchor for your launch lug that will hold up to mid power launches with mid power weighted rockets like TARC egg lofting rockets. Fits 3/16 inch rods, and is not intended for high power use.

    3/16" 3D printed launch lugs

    These launch lugs are great, I take a piece of 220 sand paper and wrap it around the tube I am going to install them and sand them exactly to tube dia. as well as sand the tops of the flanges to a taper for aerodynamics. I use 5 min. epoxy, and they are strong; forget about the straws.
