Unigel®
Economical
Unigel is an all-purpose semi-gelatin nitroglycerin dynamite (1.1) that delivers cost effective results in the majority of blasting applications. It is an effective toe load, a powerful main charge and an economical ANFO primer for both surface and underground use.
History of Reliability
Generations of blasters have proven the unsurpassed reliability of dynamite for tough conditions and difficult situations where packaged emulsions may fail if not carefully loaded. Unigel will shoot across an air gap, ensuring a successful blast where borehole conditions make it difficult to load a continuous column of powder.
Simplifies Inventory
Complex inventory requirements can often be simplified by relying on Unigel alone or in combination with a booster sensitive bagged or bulk explosive.

Dynomax™ Pro
User-Friendly
A built-in detonator well in the 2" x 16" tube shell cartridges eliminates the need to use a priming punch and minimizes potential for skin absorption of nitroglycerin, a common cause of headaches. Dynomax Pro is also packaged in special fume barrier paper that reduces fume migration 800% over conventional paper packaging; further reducing the likelihood and severity of nitroglycerin headaches due to inhalation of vapors in storage areas.
Powerful, Effective
Dynomax Pro puts more energy where you need it - in the bottom of the borehole to pull the floor. The old adage of "the shot is made at the floor" is as true today as it was 50 years ago.
The high detonation velocity of Dynomax Pro helps shear the rock at the floor level, eliminating costly and excessive subdrill. In addition, Dynomax Pro doesn't require ideal confinement to achieve steady state velocity.
Water Resistant and Environmentally Friendly
Dynomax Pro's water resistance is excellent, and, therefore, ideally suited for extreme environmental and hydrostatic applications. Borehole service life is excellent (7 days) in water-filled boreholes when the package is not ruptured.
Dynomax Pro is a nitrogen-based explosive with no added perchlorates. Ammonium and sodium nitrates and naturally-occurring carbonaceous fuels are all degradable by indigenous organisms in the environment.

D-Gel™ 1000
Extra Control
D-Gel 1000 is a desensitized nitroglycerin extra gelatin dynamite formulated with reduced sensitivity to sympathetic detonation (hole-to-hole propagation). D-Gel 1000 dynamite is an excellent choice for use in ditching, site preparation, pipeline, controlled close structure vibration, controlled projects or marine blasting applications or any operation where control is critical. D-Gel 100 has a gelatinous, tampable consistency which provides excellent rock coupling and increases pounds of explosive per foot of borehole with no fear of hole-to hole propagation.
Packaging
D-Gel 1000 is packaged in rigid paper bullet nose spiral tube shells and tamp-tite paper convolute shells.
Water Resistant
D-Gel 1000 is the choice for shooting in saturated ground conditions. D-Gel 1000 overcomes blasting and rock problems with high bulk and weight strength, density and high pressure and detonation velocity.
History of Reliability
Generations of blasters have proven the unsurpassed reliability of dynamite. Discover dynamite blasting products for extreme conditions and difficult situations where other packaged products may fail if not carefully engineered. D-Gel 1000 shoots across a 12" air gap in a 1-1/4" diameter cartridge ensuring a successful blast where borehole conditions make it difficult to load a continuous powder column.

Extra Gelatin
Two Performance Choices
Extra Gelatin is an extra gelatin nitroglycerin dynamite (1.1). Extra Gelatin 40% is the highest density dynamite on the market. It delivers excellent results when used in precision blasting and hard rock applications. Extra Gelatin 75% is an economical alternative with lower density, higher velocity and higher stick count for use where geology allows. Both dynamites have a gelatinous, tampable consistency which provides excellent rock coupling in surface and underground applications.
History of Reliability
Generations of blasters have proven the unsurpassed reliability of dynamite. Choose Extra Gelatin for extreme conditions and difficult situations where packaged emulsions may fail if not carefully loaded. Extra Gelatin will shoot across an air gap, ensuring a successful blast where borehole conditions make it difficult to load a continuous column of powder.
Water Resistant
Extra Gelatin is an excellent choice for shooting in difficult water conditions, especially where high density and high detonation velocity are desired.

Red H® A
RED HA is an ammonium nitrate dynamite formulated to meet the requirements of the Mine Safety and Health Administration for use in underground coal mines. The product is intended for use in shooting coal “off-the-solid” and coal seams that contain rock binders. Density, detonating velocity and energy provide consistent results in coal seams that are difficult to shoot.

Stonecutter™
STONECUTTER is a customized, ammonium nitrate nitroglycerin dynamite developed for use in the production of dimension stone. Low density, velocity and energy combine for good shearing effect, reduced after blast residue and will not discolor stone. A plastic or paper coupler, attached to one end of each cartridge, allows easy assembly into a continuous length. Optional spacer cartridges allow reduction in explosives load, maximum energy distribution and simplify loading.

Z Powder
Permissible
Z Powder is an extra gelatin nitroglycerin dynamite (1.1) that meets the rigid requirements of the Mine, Safety and Health Administration as a permissible explosive for use in underground coal blasting. It also reduces post-blast fumes, which allows the miner to reenter the blast site sooner, thereby increasing coal production.
Powerful
Z Powder is the most powerful permissible powder on the market today and is the miner’s choice for mine development rock blasting as well as undercut or shooting off-the-solid coal production blasts.
Reliable
Generations of blasters have proven the unsurpassed reliability of dynamite. Z Powder will shoot across an air gap to ensure a successful blast even if loading difficulties have prevented a continuous column of powder.
