Unknown German Igniter

Hello.
Please help us identify the German igniter.
I saw a diagram on the Internet.
But there is no name.
During the early thanks for the help.

It's in the TM 5-223C (German Mine warfare Equipment) but the yanks just call it a pull fuse (Zug Zünder)

**Forest Mosquito** · 05-10-2021, 08:30 PM

yes, I watched the book (see screenshots)
But it's strange that there is no name.
There is also no marking on the igniter itself.
How strange for German products without Clem
and titles.

Also in the TM 9-1985-2 (German Explosive Ordnance 1953) as a safety fuse igniter

You're not entirely wrong about the missing Waffenamt markings, but a lot of these little pieces were so simply constructed almost everyone could construct them without a real need for quality control.

I wonder why all other ignitors have stamps.
there are names.
And this one has no igniters.
Maybe an experimental model?
I understand that they were made a little.

There's also a second Version that isn't named. Has a 10kg pull and uses Steel Balls instead of a wedge
A similar Design was designated zZ31

The second version without a name is this one

**Teck 147** · 05-10-2021, 09:22 PM

That's the one. I was thinking of the wrong one. The 31 has the Steel balls

**Forest Mosquito** · 05-10-2021, 09:31 PM

Yes 31 with balls.
But all these three igniters, judging by the schemes, unite the capsule.
It looks the same on all three.
I think you need to look for German sources of information.
