Question German Bomb Fuze base plugs

[spotter]

Myself and Bigdave were wondering why if you fit a fuze plug to the bottom of a german bomb fuze you cannot fit them in the transit container.Are these plugs only ment for one type of fuze and we are wrongly fitting them to others ? Can someone explain please
thanks in advance

I think those plugs are for the small,'dumpy' types such as zts 89's,59A's etc..
I however use them on all german fuze types for display purposes. Makes them stand on the shelf better!

Indeedy,here are the examples i have of the thicker types(they fit lovely on the 17's and fit flush into the larger bakelite pots) and one of the commoner type i use for displaying the other fuzes.
