This chemical igniter was made to be used with the Glasmine 43. A pressure of 12kilo was needed to crush the igniterhead. The igniterhead consists of a body with friction compound held under a tin foil cap. Over this cap, a thin glass cover was placed to waterproof it.
Two types of fuze-bodies exist, zinc and black bakelite.
