PRODUCT TECHNICAL DATA SHEET<br />
DESCRIPTION:<br />
PRIMACORD ® <strong>Detonating</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> is an exploding cord<br />
consisting of a continuous explosive core bound by textile<br />
yarns and finished with plastic and wax as waterproofing<br />
agents. PRIMACORD ® manufacturing begins with the<br />
production of PETN, RDX or other high explosives. Textile<br />
yarns, polymers and waxes are used in a controlled<br />
production process to complete the manufacture.<br />
<strong>Ensign</strong>-<strong>Bickford</strong> <strong>Aerospace</strong> & Defense Company (EBA&D)<br />
has the capability to design, develop, produce, package<br />
and test a wide range of detonating cord products as<br />
specified by customer requirements. EBA&D is the leading<br />
supplier to the United States Military and International Forces.<br />
APPLICATION:<br />

OPERATION:<br />
When PRIMACORD ® <strong>Detonating</strong> <strong>Cord</strong> is initiated with a blasting cap or other stimuli,<br />
it detonates along its entire length at a velocity of approximately 23,000 feet<br />
(7,000 meters) per second. PRIMACORD ® is used to create explosive effects and to<br />
build reliable explosive charges.<br />
PRIMACORD ® can be initiated with military or commercial blasting caps or with<br />
equivalent strength donor lines of detonating cords and high-explosives. PRIMACORD ®<br />
is used in conjunction with other high explosive materials to form charges, including<br />
linear charges, capable of near instantaneous results.<br />
CONSTRUCTION:<br />
EBA&D manufactures military cords to MIL-C-17124E and MIL-P-387C.<br />
EBA&D internal specifications apply for commercial products.<br />
Typical Explosives - PETN, PBXN-8, RDX and CH-6<br />
Typical Textile Materials - Polyester, Rayon, Kevlar ® , Nylon, Polypropylene<br />
Over-extrusion materials are Polyolefin, Polyethlylene<br />
Packaging: Per Customer Specification<br />
