Salvo Cord (Detonating Fuse)
SALVO CORD Detonating fuse assures reliable non electric initiation. These fuses are made up of PETN as inner explosives material, subsequently covered with two layers of superior quality of yarn and further coated layers of with high strength PVC material for safe handling and water resistance. High quality of process technology and procision machineries ensures higher reliability and superior performance under all conditions.
The range of fuses manufactured includes coreloads of 6g, 10g, 12g & 20g & 40g PETN per meter. The flexible cord with uniform coreload of PETN ensures positives initation of cap sensitive core is encapsulated in multilayer protective coverings to with stand rugged use and exposure to extreme temperatures. The cord is relatively insensitive to detonational by friction, shock or electric discharge and requires proper intiation for detonation.
