TECHNICAL DATA SHEET
DYNOSPLIT® AP PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
 DYNOSPLIT AP is a detonator sensitive, continuous,
Small Dia. Detonator Sensitive Continuous Packaged Emulsion packaged emulsion explosive product that is specifically designed for underground
 perimeter control applications such as prespliting and trim blasting. DYNOSPLIT AP
 does not utilize either an internal or attached external detonating cord trace making it
 SDS an all-purpose, water resistant, cost effective emulsion product for this application. The
 Properties #1030
 continuous explosive column provides consistent borehole pressure along the entire
 loaded borehole zone resulting in a uniform tensile shearing effect. DYNOSPLIT AP is
 one continuous single cartridge and can be ordered in a standard length so that cutting
 is not needed, making this product very easy to handle. Density (g/cc) Avg 1.08
