Model Rocket Tube Couplers and Bulkheads
Tube Couplers are hollow tubes used to connect pieces of Body Tubes of the same diameter. Our Tube Couplers are quality Kraft paper windings.
Cylindrical, solid Balsa Bulkheads are used for making payload sections or for connecting same size body tubes when you don't need a hollow coupler.
Hollow Bulkhead Kits are used for making payload sections. These kits allow more useable room inside a payload section than if using a solid bulkhead and are more economical than a corresponding size Balsa Bulkhead.
Ply Bulkheads are laser-cut 1/8" plywood circles that fit inside our tube couplers. They can be used to make your own hollow bulkheads. A small starter hole is in the center of each that you can use to thread a screw eye through or to drill out a larger hole if desired for an eye bolt.
