That measurement is on the end cap, the o.d. of the fins will be quite a bit larger. The 1717 (1.7 diameter rotor) will need to be at least .2 inches larger or about 5mm than a 15 series (1.5 diameter rotor), and more yet if they pack more/larger windings in there.

If it is closer to 45mm (like a kb45) it will fit quite easily...

IDK, My tekno neu 1515 1y/F is 44mm.

Urgeoner 11.30.2009 07:46 PM

man I sure hope it will fit the Muggy RCM motor mount

Unsullied_Spy 11.30.2009 07:52 PM

Because of the 4mm mounting screws we'll need to drill our RC-M mounts to fit the screws but I bet they'll fit fine. I intend to start off with a 14T pinion, we'll see how well it fits.

Urgeoner 11.30.2009 07:59 PM

oh drilling the holes a little bigger=no problemo!

Say 1515,the first 15 is the can dia.(w/o fins), not rotor dia. for instance the Neu 15 series has a dia. of 1.53"(39mm). the latter 15 is the rotor magnetic length.

Correct. The endcap is about 0.2mm smaller than the can. With fins added the can gets 1.8mm larger, thats exactly 55.6mm shown on Castle website. It's def a 2025.
I was trying to figure out if my KB45 watercooling jackets fit the 1717 and found this on CC website.:whistle:

Unsullied_Spy 12.01.2009 12:04 AM

KB45 water jackets fit the 15** CC Neus with a little silicone but I think the 1717 may be too big.

bdebde 12.01.2009 12:58 AM

Oops, yeah, neu does use stator size, sorry. I'm used to the lehners that use rotor size. Regardless, it should be still be about .2 in (5mm) larger at minimum.

himalaya 12.03.2009 04:56 AM

So anyone has the 1717 in hand? What's the exact diameter? (w/&w/o fins)

Electric Eel 12.03.2009 07:21 AM

About 46mm diameter. With the fins about 50mm.

sikeston34m 12.04.2009 10:02 PM

So has anyone got the mean motor they ordered?

We need an update with pitchers.
