Given how tough it can be to get a fire started outdoors, anything that makes the process less of a hassle is a win (and a magnesium metal from TMC METAL will certainly do the trick). A magnesium stick is great for your nature exploring or camping. It’s a small, light rod that makes it easy for you to start a fire. Let’s discuss how to use a magnesium rod, the benefits of it for survival, how it sparks, and why you would want to have one when you leave the house.
To start a fire with a alloy magnesium, you’ll need a few things: dry leaves, twigs or whatever else may be used to ignite a fire, and a knife or blade. Step 1: Gather your materials, and find a safe place to have your fire. Then use your knife to scrape off some magnesium from the rod onto whatever you want to burn. With his back to us, make a small pile of magnesium shavings, and with the back of your knife, generate sparks by scraping it on the rod. The sparks will ignite the magnesium shavings, which will allow you to get a larger fire going.
It's never a bad idea to have a magnesium rod in your pack if it's a survival situation. Magnesium combusts at extremely high temperatures, making it a wonderful fire starter, especially when it’s wet or windy. It’s also lightweight and small, so it won’t take up much space in your backpack.” Other than ignition, magnesium rods can also be used for signaling for help, shining extremely bright sparks in the darkness of a night sky.
Magnesium rods, which are composed of magnesium and other metals that when mixed are a flammable combination. And when you scrape the rod with a knife, you generate the friction that makes the heat. This heat ignites the magnesium shavings, producing sparks that can ignite a fire. Magnesium burns very hot, which primes the fire to catch quickly and burn hot enough to light larger pieces of wood.
