FAQ

What is ferrocerium?


It is a metal alloy (mainly cerium + lanthanum + iron) which, when scraped with a sharp edge, produces very hot sparks (over 3,000 °C) capable of igniting small dry fuel.

Does ferrocerium work in rain/humidity?


Yes. Ferrocerium is unaffected by water—even when wet, it produces sparks as soon as you scratch it. This is one of its great advantages for survival in harsh conditions.

How to use it optimally?

1. Prepare a small nest of very dry tow (fine grasses, bark, cotton, plant fibers).

2. Place the ferrocerium very close to the tow.

3. Scrape the stem firmly with a hard edge at about 45°, throwing the sparks into the tow.

4. As soon as the spark catches, blow gently to make the flame grow.

Is there any coating to remove at first?

The black protective adhesive surrounding the rod must be removed before the first scraping.

Is this safe for food use/around food?


Yes. Ferrocerium does not release toxic substances into the air when it sparks—it is only used to light the fire, not as fuel.

Treat yourself!

Even when dipped in water, the ferrocerium rod can instantly start a fire. Used by special forces and adventurers, it will never let you down.
