The lower end of the fuze is threaded and the upper portion, larger in diameter than the threaded portion, is strengthened by 4 external vertical ribs. The filling of the fuze is a match head compound in which is embedded a pull cord, the loop of which extends above the fuze case for attaching a pull wire.
