Dimensions are approximate.Ferrocerium is a man-made metallic material that produces hot sparks at temperatures of about 5,430° F (3,000° C) when scraped against a rough surface such as ridged steel. It is also commonly called a ferro rod, fire steel, and flint rod, and even works when wet, making it a favorite among outdoor and survival enthusiast. The ferrocerium is made of 50 percent cerium, 25 percent lanthanum, and 19 percent iron, with small amounts of praseodymium, neodymium, and magnesium.Ferro Rod Fire Starter TipsRemove the Ferro Rod’s Black Coating: Your ferro rod comes with a black coating, which prevents oxidation. This black coating has to be removed before you can create a spark. This black veneer is easy to scrape off. Two or three scrapes should expose the shiny metal surface. You don’t have to remove all the black, just a wide enough line so you see the shiny area on the rod where you scrape.The Best Tinder: Dry, fluffy material works best. Cotton balls, drier lint, char cloth, hemp rope, and natural plant fuzz (e.g. cattail seed, goldenrod fluff, and milkweed) all work great as the fuel to allow the sparks to stick and burn.Consider Moving The Rod, Not The Scraper: Hold the striker’s teeth at about a 45-degree angle to the rod. Pull the rod across the striker towards you instead of pushing the striker towards your tinder. This technique will help you avoid accidentally disturbing your tinder setup with your down stroke.Georgia Residents – Please Note: Sales tax charged for items shipped to: GA (7%)International Buyers – Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
