Ideal Cast Boosters

Cast Boosters

Cast Boosters are High Detonation pressure explosives and are sensitive to No. 6 detonator, No.8 detonator and Detonating Fuse.Upon initiation, Cast Boosters detonate at a high velocity and very high temperature.

These qualitites together with higher density produces good detonation that makes them efficient Primers and Boosters. They can used to Prime the boreholes with ANFO, Cartridge explosives, Bulk explosives.

Each Booster will have two through holes for easy insertion of Detonating Fuse or Detonator.

It makes efficient primer and booster that detonate at a very High Velocity Detonation and Temperature. These can be used for open mining and their efficiency in detonation, high density, ability to store them easily for a long time makes them a great primer. Primarily used for initiating non-cap sensitives in a bore hole, they do not have any liquid ingredients which can help in easy operations of it.

Cast Boosters are available in 100grams, 250grams, 400 grams and 500grams.

  • Cast Boosters contain no Nitro-Glycerin and therefore are less sensitive to shock and friction .
  • Cast Boosters have long storage life.
  • Convenient to use and assemble no prickers are required.
  • Cast Boosters contain no headache causing ingredients.
