Size: 25g roll, approx. 14.5 metres in length. 3mm wide .25mm thick Contains: 99% magnesium, 1% Zinc and Lead. Burning Magnesium produces a very bright reaction which liberates a substantial amount of heat energy, easily reaching temperatures of a few thousand degrees forming magnesium oxide (magnesia). The flame is very intense, do not look at it directly for more than a few seconds. For safety wear Ultraviolet Blocking UV Goggles. Magnesium ribbon can be ignited using a simple butane lighter or Bunsen burner. Once ignited, the ribbon will burn slowly but steadily down the length of the strand, leaving a flaky, white, Magnesium Oxide residue behind. After ignition is begun, Magnesium ribbon is difficult to extinguish. Class 4.1 UN:1869 PGIII
