Super Power Cast Booster
Pentolite Boosters are made of high explosives PETN and TNT composition cast into a plastic shell. They can be initiated by detonators or detonating cord to provide reliable initiation of pumped augered and packaged explosives. Boosters make efficient primers and boosters that detonate at a very high velocity and temperature. These qualities, together with high density produce high detonation pressure. Pentolite boosters can be stored for long periods of time, as they contain no liquid ingredients and can be operated easily without use of special tools.
They are equipped with two holes for easy initiation with detonating cord or detonators. They do not contain nitro glycerin or other headache causing ingredients.
