MECPRIME CORD 

 


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.

6) Applications Surface trunk line, Secondary blasting, down line small diameter hole. Excellent general purpose cord for reliable blast initiation under virtually all conditions in mining & construction, carrying. Special application such seismic prospecting, prespliting, priming etc.

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.
