WW2 German Army Pull/Pressure Bakelite Fuse INERT

This is an inert World War II German Army pull/pressure Bakelite fuse, designed for use with various explosive devices during the conflict. Manufactured primarily from Bakelite, an early type of plastic, these fuses were engineered for reliable activation under either pulling or pressing forces. The Bakelite casing provided both electrical insulation and resistance to environmental wear, making it suitable for field conditions. The fuse would have been integrated into a range of ordinance, including mines and demolition charges, to initiate detonation when specific mechanical actions—such as pulling a tripwire or applying pressure—were applied. Markings and construction details reflect standard Wehrmacht production of the WWII period. This example is rendered completely inert, containing no explosive or active components. It serves as an authentic representation of German military engineering and the technological advancements employed during the era. This artifact is intended for display or educational purposes within a military history context.
