    Descripción general

    The NC-5A Nose Cone Insert is a vital component for rockets using the PNC-5A Nose Cone with BT-5 body tubes. Designed to act as the retention pin, it locks the nose cone securely in place during ascent while ensuring clean, controlled separation at ejection. This reliable fit prevents premature release yet guarantees the nose cone ejects smoothly at apogee when the recovery system activates.

    Made from injection-molded ABS plastic, the NC-5A Insert delivers durability with a touch of flexibility. This combination helps reduce the risk of breakage under launch and recovery stresses, while also making it easy to reuse across multiple flights. Its molded eyelet provides a strong anchor point for shock cords, parachutes, or streamers.

    Engineered for precision, the insert matches the internal diameter of BT-5 body tubes. Builders can also fine-tune the fit by lightly sanding the insert or tube shoulder if needed, ensuring consistent engagement and alignment every time.

    Though not currently part of an active Estes kit, the NC-5A Nose Cone Insert is an essential accessory for custom builds using the PNC-5A Nose Cone. Together, they form a dependable nose cone assembly that supports stable, high-performance flights and safe recoveries.
