Abstract
A hanger of steel for guiding a missile in a launcher has arcuate flanges matching the shape of the missile an a guiding element of substantially T-shaped cross section. A longitudinal recess is defined on the outer side of the transverse bar of the 'T'. The surfaces of the transverse bar facing the flanges define rest surfaces and the adjacent lateral surfaces of the vertikal bar of the 'T' serve as lateral guiding surfaces for the missile. A longitudinal, rounded recess is provided between each of the lateral surfaces and the adjacent rest surface, in order to increase the notch radius. The surface of the material is treated to generate internal compressive stress in the regions of the recesses.
