Camping Hiking Bushcraft Emergency Fire Starting Magnesium

Magnesium: The Ultimate Fire Starter

Our magnesium is the hottest-burning magnesium you can buy. Whether you're starting a fire with a ferro rod, torch lighter, or wooden matches, this material will burn white-hot (4000°F) even in wet conditions. It's the lightest and hottest fire-starting material you can purchase, capable of igniting wet tinder when nothing else will.

I have personally used this magnesium while backpacking from sea level to the summit of Mt. Whitney (over 14,000 feet) for over 30 years, which is why it's so popular among outdoor enthusiasts across the United States. The shaved, shredded, chipped, and spiral-shaped powder makes it easy to start a fire in any condition.

Magnesium is a solid combustible material that ignites at around 800 degrees Fahrenheit and burns much hotter. When using wooden matches or a lighter, you only need 2-4 seconds of direct contact to get it going. Simply make a small, pyramid-shaped mound, ensuring the flame is in direct contact with the thinnest slivers or spirals of magnesium. If there's wind, position the flame so the wind blows it onto the magnesium. Once ignited, stir the material with a stick or your striker to add more oxygen.

Please use common sense and good judgment when using this and all fire-starting products. Do not use indoors, and always have a plan to quickly extinguish your fire. Attempting to extinguish burning magnesium with sand is a good idea, but water is not.

Keep this product away from children, and be safe. Practice makes perfect when it comes to starting fires with magnesium. Enjoy the convenience and reliability of our magnesium shavings, chips, shreds, and spirals, packaged in (8) reusable 2.5-inch by 3-inch waterproof ziplock bags.

In summary, our magnesium is the hottest-burning, lightest, and most reliable fire-starting material you can find. It ignites with a ferro rod, match, or lighter in just 2-5 seconds, and can even light wet tinder in seconds. With a burning temperature of 4000°F, this is the ultimate tool for outdoor enthusiasts who demand the best. Start your next fire with confidence using our premium magnesium.
