16-Shot Fan Mortar Rack - 1.91" HDPE DR11 Tubes - BROADSIDE 16 by American Mortar Company

WIDE-ANGLE COMMAND. ENGINEERED SPACING. PROFESSIONAL BUILD.

The BROADSIDE 16 FAN is engineered for pyrotechnicians who demand expanded horizontal spread and precise firing control in a professional fan rack. Built in a precision 2X8 angled formation, this rack delivers massive sky coverage and dynamic pacing, making it the ideal choice for mid-show accents, cross-field effects, and layered firing sequences.

Like all our premium units, the fan configuration is built with Engineered Safety Spacing—providing critical air gaps between every tube to ensure thermal isolation and structural security, even during rapid-fire angled sequences.

Expanded coverage, dependable, and built to last—this is where serious setups begin.

🛡️ THE GOLD STANDARD: WHY HDPE DR11?

In the world of pro pyrotechnics, the material of your mortar tube is the difference between a successful show and a dangerous failure.

• Shatter-Proof Safety: Unlike PVC, which can shrapnel into sharp plastic shards during a shell failure, our High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) is designed to swell or tear under extreme pressure, significantly reducing the risk of flying debris.
• DR11 Heavy Wall: We use the DR11 specification, providing a thick, durable sidewall that handles the high-pressure lift charges of modern 1.91" canister shells with ease. HDPE tubes are weather-resistant, built for hundreds of reloads without becoming brittle.

🔵 COMMERCIAL-GRADE CONSTRUCTION

Each BROADSIDE 16 FAN rack includes 16 premium HDPE DR11 mortar tubes, built to professional specifications and trusted by experienced shooters.

• Inner Diameter: 1.91″ (Fits most consumer canister shells)
• Length: 12″ (Professional mortar standard)
• Bottoms: Factory-plugged and Quad-Stapled (4-point reinforcement) for maximum lift retention.
• Stability: Reinforced wide-stance lumber construction designed to remain rock-solid during angled launches.
