Lighters, fuse

The principle of the safety match is also used in the pull-wire fuse lighter used to start a fuse train for the ignition of fireworks items or more frequently for blasting work. This is a reversed pull match whereby the striker material is coated on a pull wire, and the match head material is within a small metal cup in a cardboard tube. Pulling the coated wire vigorously out of the device ignites the match mixture in the tube for fire transfer to the tubular fuse train. [Pg.2]

Explosives may be detonated electrically or nonelectrically. A nonelectric firing system will consist of a blasting cap, a length of time (safety) fuse or a firing device attached to the cap, and a means of activating the system match, fuse lighter, delay mechanism, or trip wire. The electric system requires an electric cap which has two wires attached, perhaps additional wire, and a battery or batteries to provide the current which activates the cap. [Pg.5]
