As a weather- and energy-independent ignition source, it is your faithful helper that supports you in making fire on your own. Shorter than a hand's length, the Petromax Fire Piston fits easily into any luggage and provides the spark for your adventures.

Compressed Fire Power
The cleverly designed Fire Piston cleverly combines a method of igniting fire that has been proven for centuries. The traditional way of igniting tinder in a hollow cylinder by compressing air pressure was already known to primitive peoples. This technique is revived in the form of the Petromax Fire Piston and is as simple as it is effective: the piston head is loaded with tinder and then abruptly pressed into the piston sleeve. The resulting air pressure and the heat of up to 400 °C that develops ignite the tinder and thus a ready ember or a prepared fireplace - without electricity, lighters or other aids. As an additional ignition alternative, you will find a rod fire steel stowed inside the flask, which guarantees a sparking fire start.

Everything in one hand
The high-quality black anodized Petromax fire flask consists of flask and flask sleeve. The tinder and the lubricant for a smooth ignition process can be found in the respective reservoirs at the ends. These are well secured by screw caps. Unscrew the tinder container on the piston and you can remove the additional rod fire steel placed there. The fire flask itself is stored in the matching transport bag to save space. So nothing is guaranteed to get lost and the Petromax fire piston is well prepared for multiple ignition use.
