ABSTRACT:
A fusee is provided including a tubular housing containing a pyrotechnic mixture and one end of the housing includes a match head defining an outwardly opening central cavity therein. A cover sleeve including a central partition therein is provided and defines opposite end outwardly opening recesses on opposite sides of the partition. A scratch mix central projection is supported within one of the recesses on the corresponding side of the partition and the cover sleeve is removably telescoped over the match head supporting end of the housing with that housing end telescoped into the other of the recesses. The cover sleeve is alternately telescopingly engageable over the match head supporting end of the housing with the match head end received in the scratch mix projection containing recess and in position with the projection frictionally telescoped into the cavity of the match head for igniting the same. The end of the sleeve containing the scratch mix projection has a removable cover releasably engaged therewith and includes structure releasably engageable with the match head for releasably limiting telescoping of the match head end of the housing sufficiently into the scratch mix projection containing recess sufficient to engage the projection in the match head cavity.
