British No54 Grenade - Help

[EnfieldMills]

Evening all,

Does anyone know if the fuze has a clockwise or counter-clockwise thread?

Fuze has got stuck in the body and I don't want to go the wrong way.

Cheers,
Luke

Screws in Clockwise.

It might be worth putting it in the freezer for a couple of days. The brass plug will shrink more than the cast iron body.

Also I've only seen that brass plug on experimental 54's - not that I've seen many.

The brass one comes out easily. I had got the fuze stuck, but its all sorted now. Thanks the help.
