Pentex™ PowerPlus™ P (PPP) Booster
Pentex™ PowerPlus™ P boosters are made from a high explosive composition cast into a cylindrical cardboard shell. Two longitudinal tunnels in the booster accommodate either a detonator or detonating cord. One tunnel has straight walls while the other is stepped at the top of the booster to provide a stop for the detonator. Detonating cord, signal tube or lead wires are protected from damage by a recessed well at the base of the booster.
Pentex™ PowerPlus™ P boosters contain Detlok™. Detlok™ securely holds the detonator in place during loading, while still enabling safe removal of the detonator if required. Detlok™ is compatible for use with all recommended detonating cords. Pentex™ PowerPlus™ P boosters contain a waterproof plastic bottle containing PETN explosive. The bottle allows initiation of the booster by low charge weight detonating cords. Pentex™ PowerPlus™ P boosters have a high density, and a high velocity of detonation (VOD) to maximise performance.
