fireROD XL™ Refill Kit

Our fire starting tools utilize a proprietary alloy of rare earth metals called ferrocerium.  Some of these metals include Iron, Cerium and Magnesium.  When a ferrocerium rod is rapidly scraped, the friction created ignites the shavings producing molten globulars of burning metal.  It is these long-burning molten globulars of metal that make a ferrocerium fire starter so effective at catching other materials afire. HOW TO REPLACE: To replace an old rod, simply unscrew the rod and screw in the new rod.  Ensure the rod is a snug fit into the rod holder.   TIPS: An optional drop of blue or purple loctite will help retain the rod if it becomes loose.  FEATURES:  1/2" Ferrocerium rod works when wet  Up to 20,000 fire-starting strikes!   PACKAGE INCLUDES: 1/2" Threaded ferrocerium rod (1 pc) Replacement O-rings (1 pc)     WARNING: The combustion of wood, charcoal and other fuels can expose you to chemicals including carbon monoxide and soot, which are known to the state of california to cause cancer and birth defects or reproductive harm.  For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
