CHARACTERISTICS :-
MECPRIME CORD is a detonating fuse containing uniform
core load of PETN, that assures positive initiation of Cap
sensitive explosives along the entire length of the fuse.
MECPRIME CORD is relatively insensitive to detonation by
friction, shock or electric discharge and requires a proper
initiation for detonation.

OPERATING AIDS:-
|
Since
MECPRIME CORD contains a core of high explosives, it
should be appropriately handled and stored. Detonating
fuse and detonators should not be transported &
stored together. Avoid loops, sharp kinks & angles in trunk line
and use recommended methods only when
connecting downline to trunkline.
PACKAGING
MECPRIME CORD is wound on wooden/car board reels.
4 reels are placed in a corrugated cartons.
