INVESTIGATION OF ROCKET GUIDE SHOE MATERIALS

摘要

Sixteen proposed rocket shoe materials were rested in sliding contact with uncoated and coated aluminum launcher guide rail material. Tests were made at speeds of 155 to 185 feet per second and ambient temperatures of 80 F, 140 F and minus 40 F, using loads of 600,800 and 1500 psi. No lubrication was used.
