(ROL Newswire) -- Hawk Mountain has developed an aluminum fin canister
for their 4" fiberglass tubing. This is a military grade unit machined
from 6061-T6 aluminum with beveled 0.125" thick fins! The fin can screws
together on the airframe and if a fin is damaged it can be easily
replaced. The fin can weighs 1.5 pounds and is clear anodized which will
resist corrosion and can be painted with regular paint. The fin canister
can be used for a 4" minimum diameter rocket or can be used with
airframes with 38, 54 or 75mm motor mounts. Besides being strong enough
for Mach flights you can easily remove the fin canister if your rocket
suffers damage to the airframe. The Fin Canister sells for $98.00
