Esbit is a world leader in solid fuel production. For more than 70 years now, Esbit has been working to find and implement the highest quality fuel. The active ingredient in this type of fuel is Hexamethylenetetramine, a heterocyclic chemical compound obtained from the reaction of formaldehyde ("dehydrated formalin") and ammonia. It is in the form of white crystals and, when compressed into larger cubes, serves as a "fuel cartridge" for specially designed stoves. All of the above attributes make this type of fuel more and more widely used by outdoor enthusiasts, camping enthusiasts, survivalists, as well as military units, emergency services and relief organizations in third world countries.
Solid fuel of the highest quality - often called Esbit fuel for a reason.
The most important advantages of Esbit fuel:
- is completely "non-explosive"
- does not liquefy during combustion - it will not leak from the stove, which guarantees a high level of safety
- ignites effortlessly from matches or a lighter
- does not spark during combustion - burnt holes in fleeces and jackets are a thing of the past
- during combustion, solid fuel emits high temperature, which speeds up the cooking and heating process
- leaves practically no ash after burning
- emits no smoke
- is compact, lightweight and easy to store and transport
- with proper storage retains its properties for many years
- most airlines allow you to carry this type of fuel in your luggage (but you need to make sure before departure at the information of the airline).
The package contains 20 cubes of 14 g each.
