does these 2 motor casings use the same fore/aft closures and seal disc?TIA

Same closures fit both - I think only a couple of the

29/240 loads use the seal disk (i.e., H210R, H220T) - none of the 29/180 loads need it.

Yes. When you buy the 180-240 set, you get the 2 casings, one set of closures, and a seal disc. The bad of this, if you lose a motor on a flight, you are left with the other casing, and no closures. David

Perfect!

Along those lines, Can you interchange AeroTech and Dr Rockets closures and cases?

Yes.

Yep, they're mechanically identical - they're machined on the same tooling and setups; the only differences are the color of the dye/anodized finish, and the style of the labeling. (Aerotech-branded cases have a thin sheet aluminum nameplate while the DR ones have laser-inscribed markings on the outer wall of the casing tube itself.)

Always.

Yes, but the colors usually clash.
