A 20-ft section of stainless-steel tubing used to transfer the flow of nitrous oxide from pressure vessels to a hybrid motor on the hybrid motor test rig.
One 4-inch diameter fiberglass body tube, used for the fuselage of a competition rocket. Durable, lightweight, and relatively inexpensive when compared to other plastic composite materials, fiberglass components form the bulk of a competition rocket.
A top-of-the-line aluminum-tipped filament-wound carbon fiber nose cone for the Syncope rocket.
A sheet of 1/4" G20 grade fiberglass laminate. Used for fins and other internal structural components of Syncope, as well as for prototypes of an experimental active braking system.
A Cesaroni L1050-P L-class solid rocket motor. Required for each launch of Syncope, the competition rocket.
The ablative liner protects the Taurus hybrid rocket motor's aluminum casing from the heat of combustion. One is required for every test fire, and consists of 26 wraps of fiberglass, almost a kilogram of resin and hardener, and an ample amount of graphite powder.
Several high-performance pneumatic valves for the fluid systems of our motor test rig and launch pad. Will be used to implement automatic refilling of the nitrous oxide accumulator tank.
One large roll of course-weave fiberglass, good for several airframes, ablative liners, and other components.
