About
The GATE Thruster M is the mid-size variant of GATE Space’s high-precision chemical thruster line, featuring closed-loop pressure control via the combustion chamber for consistently accurate thrust output. Its patented injection technology enables stable, predictable deep throttling over a 1:10 range with steady-state, transient and pulsed firing modes up to 10 Hz. Running on C2H6/N2O propellants with 270-300 s specific impulse, it delivers 5-50 N of thrust with a lead time of 9-12 months and a base price of €40,000. It weighs under 1000 g, measures D<75mm x H<250mm, and operates across a survivability range of -40C to +65C.
