I am looking for some information on the following fuze. It is listed as a Dutch No. 82.

Dia: 61MM
Length: 109MM
Exposed Length: 79MM

Any ideas?

Joe

Hello,

I only know Swedish used a similar MTSQ fuze with designation m/1951 (with a different base and thread).

Hi,

The picture below comes from a DIXI catalog.

It's not an answer for what fuze it is. I maybe mistaken, but I think there is something wrong with your cutaway (part of the lower flash channel, labeled 48)...
The cutaway provided by MINENAZ16 shows the same.

Regards,

S.
 
Does the 2 on the side ... or that the fuze looks like it runs up to 63 help at all on the ID of this?

Joe,

It looks like the Dutch NR 40 (Mechanische Tijdschokbuis), exept yours seem to have a longer thread and plug...
Can't find any drawings on the NR 82.
