DESCRIPTION
Safety Fuse is a slow burning fuse used to initiate plain detonators. It is composed of a black powder core surrounded by various layers of textiles and waterproofing materials that make it resistant to humidity, abrasion and mechanical stresses.
Plain detonators are always used in conjunction with Safety Fuse. A Plain Detonator consists of an aluminum shell loaded with a PETN charge and a primary charge. They can be used to initiate high explosives and detonating cords simply. Crimping Safety Fuse to a Plain Detonator must be done using special pliers or approved crimping tools.
