ClusterFire (CF) Initiator Composition Kit

The CF-KIT allows you to make extremely reliable low amp high temp (5400F) rocket motor initiators using our low amp CF series initiator wires. Requiring only 2.5 amps @ 6 volts DC you can now reliably launch rockets with up to 12 rocket motors at a time using most 12 volt powered launching systems capable of delivering 30 amps. The CF-KIT includes all the necessary pre-measured chemicals, mixing tools and instructions to make 40 grams (1.4 oz) of initiator composition. This is enough initiator composition to make 100's of CFS-12, CF-12, CF-24 or CF-48 initiators with no fold. Initiator Composition, and thinner come sealed in glass lab grade bottles with thermoset PTFE lined caps for years of storage without worry of evaporation. To see a video of 60 CF-48 initiators being fired in parallel using our 24 volt 500 amp MagneBlaster click HERE.
