Unknown fuze

[genkideskan]

Any idea about this fuze? Artillerie or bombfuze? Land? type ?
Has an brass safety cap with soldered brass pullband. One safety pin and a second safety wire hook. Brass knob could be turn a little bit - housing has two markings 0 and 7.
No markings - only a logo numbers and / 37.

Any idea Iam totally lost

Hi Genkideskan,

Firstly, that is one very interesting fuse you have there............

The construction is quite unusual - I first thought that it was an aerial bomb fuse, however the impeller is quite small and just doesn't have sufficient surface area or impeller angles to typical function as an aerial arming mechanism - even for anti-submarine.....and I'm not sure if soldered caps were ever used with non-artillery fuzes???

Having a closer look at the impeller, the vanes actually looks more like a safety cap to be unscrewed (PD fuse?), so it may be an artillery related fuse - but the caveat to this theory is the "wire hook" would stop it from being removed........

Have you tried to dis-assemble it?

Also any photos of the underside? Any idea of the thread size?

Thanks

Cheers
Drew

BTW - Can't make out the "logo"????

The fuze cover cap looks like it is from a No 85 fuze. Doesn't look like it would fit this fuze both in size and with the safety ring pull.

It is a Skoda bomb fuze. Impact, nose fuze.
