Acme's product line includes one-piece injection-molded fin canisters made from super-tough BASF Ultramid polyamide composite. Currently ACME has 2 designs available: the 38mm version fits most common 38mm airframe tubes (up to a maximum airframe tube outside diameter of 1.670 inches), while the 54mm version fits most common 54mm airframe tubes (up to a maximum outside diameter of 2.280 inches).
38mm fin can (left), 54mm fin can (right)There's really no easier and faster way to build a minimum diameter rocket, and still maintain the construction strength requirements dictated by high power rocket flight dynamics. All the trouble of oversize airframe tubes, individual through-wall fins, centering rings, slotting, fin filleting, and the like are eliminated. The Acme fin canister simply slides onto your airframe tube, and epoxies into place.

Acme brings launch lug design into the 21st century with its extensive line of Conformal Launch Lugs. These lugs feature an integral, rounded base that fits your airframe tube precisely. The close fit of the conformal base maximizes the shear strength inherent in adhesive bonds, and the 6061-T6 extruded aluminum construction guarantees structural integrity.
Acme currently has 19 Conformal launch lug designs available to suit your airframe and launcher requirements, including:
- Eleven sizes to fit a wide variety of HPR industry standard airframe tube sizes, accommodating standard HPR launch rod diameters.
- Eight sizes to fit a wide variety of HPR industry standard airframe tube sizes, accommodating popular HPR rail launchers.
Each Acme Conformal Launch Lug kit comes with 2 lugs of the specified size, 2 sheets of 3M sheet adhesive, and installation instructions.
