Check the listing for details. HexaLite Ferro Rod Fire Starter Large 6-Sided Shape & Easy Grip Striker. Color: Black, Condition: New. Listed at 14.89 USD. HexaLite Ferro Rod fire starter is a whopping 1/2-inch diameter x 6-inch long and the 6-sided hex shape gives you over 50% more striking area than a standard round fire rod. Like all of our ferro firestarters, the HexaLite uses our "PyroStryke" ferrocerium blend that when struck with the large easy to grip fire striker, throws a shower of molten hot (up to 5500 degrees) shards on your tinder, making it easy to get fires started super fast, even in the worst weather conditions. Other features includes 6-feet of braided 7-strand 550 paracord wrist lanyard providing a sure grip while striking the Ferro rod and can be uséd in emergency situations for building a shelter, replacing a shoelace, uséd as fishing line or any number of other uses.
