Z.s.u.m.W.M.T. (?), variant ?

[minen]

Hi all,

I've acquired this fuze Z.s.u.m.W.M. for trench mortar (inert).
That's a common fuze but I've never seen the letter "T." after the name's mark.

Do you know the meaning of "T." ?

Cap in zamac, aluminium plates (graduated until 25 seconds), corps in brass.
Dated 1918, with maker mark. It is completely removable, but perhaps the cap don't go with the corps ?





Thanks,
Stephan

Nobody has an idea about this fuze?

Hi minen, I have about 2 cents to throw in, but just 2 cents. This particular minenwerfer fuze (for the medium and large minenwerfer) is most typically dated 1916 and i've never seen the 1918 dated version. This can mean 1 of 2 things.
1) I don't get out much
2) The 1918 version is a little rarer than the 1916 version
Unfortunately I have no clue on the "T" designation
Anyway beautiful fuze, a true German WW1 classic....Best to you and yours....Dano
