If making HTMF-12 E-Matches with the MF-KIT what should they look like?
When I make e-matches with the MF-KIT the grayish colored pyrogen is cracking as it dries.
This can happen, especially in very warm and dry climates, when the pyrogen is to thick. Add more MEK thinner to the pyrogen until it is thinned to the proper consistency. ie. The pyrogen should quickly run off the end of the wooden stir stick when removed. We have updated the MF-KIT instructions dated 11-26-13 or later to reflect this change.
I've lost the instructions for dipping matches, can I get a new copy?
YES. The instruction sheet is available for download here in Rich Text Format (.rtf.)
How long is the shelf life of your pyrogen once its mixed?
Several years. However, never attempt to re-wet dried pyrogen. Store in the airtight container the pyrogen came in to prevent the pyrogen from drying out.
Once mixed does the CF, MF or ML-KIT require a LEUP?
No.
Do I need an ATF manufacturers permit to make my own igniters?
No. A manufacturing license is not required to manufacture low explosive materials for one's own use.
How do I fold the igniter wires before dipping for larger motors?
