Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly comes in the box?

The AeroTech RMS-29/240 Complete Motor Hardware Set (2924M) includes: one aluminum motor case (29 mm diameter, 240 mm length), one forward closure, one forward seal disc, one aft closure, and a 1 cc tube of Super-Lube grease. Motor reloads are sold separately.

What is the forward seal disc for?

The forward seal disc creates a tight seal between the forward closure and the reload propellant grain. It prevents hot gases from leaking around the grain, which could damage the closure or cause motor failure. Always install it during assembly. Never omit the forward seal disc; it is essential for safe motor operation.

Is this hardware set compatible with all 29mm reloads?

No. This set is only compatible with AeroTech RMS-29/240 high power reload kits. It is not compatible with Mid Power RMS products or any other 29 mm reloads. Check the reload kit label for the '29/240' designation before use. Always match the reload kit to the hardware case length (240 mm).

How do I assemble the motor with this hardware?

Apply a thin layer of Super-Lube grease to the O-rings on the closures. Insert the reload propellant grain into the case, then the forward seal disc, and finally the forward closure. Install the aft closure with the nozzle and delay element. Torque all closures to AeroTech's recommended values. See the included instructions or the AeroTech website for detailed steps. Grease O-rings lightly; over-torquing can damage threads.

Can I reuse the hardware set?

Yes, the hardware set is reusable. After each flight, disassemble, clean all parts with a mild solvent, inspect for wear or damage (especially O-rings and threads), and store in a dry place. Replace O-rings as needed. The case and closures are aluminum and can last many flights with proper care. Inspect O-rings and threads before each reuse; replace if damaged.
