I'm doing a run of custom aft tail cone closures that fit AT 75mm motors. These are perfect for that minimum diameter M1315 or M1850 project you've got. These closures will function like a standard aft closure in every way, but with the benefit of a tail cone to reduce base drag and increase your rocket's performance.

Specs:
- precision machined from 6061T6 aluminum
- 2.45" total length
- 1.70" exposed tail cone length
- 3.125" max diameter at shoulder
- 2.375" diameter at aft end
- slide over single-throat AT nozzles (not compatible with Medusa nozzles)
- aluminum finish, not anodized

These are not certified at this time and are for research flights only. I am offering these at $99 each, plus $10 shipping to anywhere in the lower 48. PM with interest. Orders will be taken through May 1st. Turnaround time is 4-6 weeks. They will be shipped via USPS priority mail.

Pic below is the 98mm version.

Is the 98mm version available?
 
Again, taking orders for 75mm tail cone closures through May 1. $99 plus shipping. Tail cones will still be available but after May 1, but price will increase to $119.
 
75mm tailcone closures for sale at $99 through May 1. Give your MD project a special look and a performance increase.

PM to order.
 
Thanks to everyone who has placed an order. I have enough stock left for about 3 more 75mm tailcone closures. PM if you want to get in on this run.
 
Ok trying to move the last few pieces on this run. Get one 75mm tailcone closure and one standard 98mm tailcone closure for $250 shipped. The standard 98 closure is compatible with motors like the N1000 and M1939. PM to reserve.

Alright, last call folks! 75mm tailcone closures for $99+$10 shipping. 98mm standard tailcone N1000 type closures for $175+$10 shipping. Buy one 75 and one standard 98 for $250 shipped.

Stock goes to the machinist Wednesday, so no more orders will be taken after that.
 
All 75mm tailcone closures have been spoken for on this run. Thanks all! I'll keep you updated on shipping date.

I still have a couple 98mm standard nozzle (N1000 type) tailcone closures available. PM for those.

Please let me know when you will do the next run. I was devastated that I missed out on this run by just two days.
 
It could happen this summer if there's enough interest to justify another run.
 
75's are done. I'll do my best to get these boxed up and shipped out in the next couple of days.

The machinist was very smart with the stock this time and made one extra. PM me if you want it. $109 shipped.
 
I've gotten a couple of requests for another run of the 75mm tail cone closures. Price would be $119 shipped. Send me a PM if you're interested. Need at least a dozen orders to make it go.
