Detonating Cord - Textile Braided

Detonating Cord (textile braided) consists of a continuous core which is bound in a plastic sheath together with synthetic textile yarns to provide higher tensile strength, abrasion resistance and knot tying capabilities. The cords withstand suddenly applied loads due to their tensile strength and ability to stretch. In other words even under severe conditions of rock movement or product loading they will reliably detonate. The cords are manufactured with PETN core-loads of 3.5 gms/mtr, 5.0 gms/mtr and 10 .gms/mtr.

Application

All varieties of detonating cords (textile braided) can be used for either downline or surface application since they provide a safe, quick and reliable system of initiating high explosives and blasting agents.
