Launch Rod Stand Off (1/8" and 3/16" rods)

thingiverse

Do you need a stand off for the model rockets you launch so they will not be touching the blast deflector plate at liftoff? Here's your solution! There are four files you can choose from and print. They all will lift your rocket above the blast deflector plate five inches (127mm) above it. Two will fit over a 1/8th inch (3.175mm) diameter launch rod. There are three with spreads on the horizontal support bars at 45, 60, and 90 degree as well as one that combines all three. The other two will fit over a 3/16th inch (4.763mm) diameter launch rod. There are three with spreads on the horizontal support bars at 45, 60, and 90 degree as well as one that combines all three. I would suggest printing these with a higher temperature plastic such as PETG or ABS since it will be exposed to the hot exhaust gases of model rocket motors for a short period of time at launch.
