Product Description

British No 101 Mark II fuze was manufactured in 1917. The No 101 percussion fuze was introduced in 1916 and represented an attempt to overcome the No 100 fuze's weak points. The 101 did away with the 'cocked pellet', used a fixed needle, and placed the detonator in the graze pellet. The needle was originally pressed in, but loose needles often caused premature explosions and a screwed-in needle was used after the Mark I. The 101 ran to five 'Marks' and was declared obsolete in 1921.
