nanoSTRIKER XL Key Features

Multi-Functional Fire Starting Tool

Exotac's nanoSTRIKER XL is a fire-starting tool with multiple functional and stylish vital features. The tool includes a built-in stainless steel and tungsten carbide striker that will outlast even the fiercest of fire-craftsmen! When you're done using it, this little tool can be collapsed and returned to key-chain ballast duty, so everything stays compact and neat. The fire starter features an aluminum body that was anodized in one of our four signature colors. It is also light enough to place in your pocket or backpack without the extra weight. The included ferrocerium rod is small and lightweight yet strong enough to hold up to regular use. It is waterproof but needs to be patted dry before use if it is wet or damp. A flammable lanyard is also attached to make fire-starting simple, no matter where you are.

How to Use The nanoSTRIKER XL

Simple Fire-Starting Guide

Exotac's nanoSTRIKER XL is straightforward to use. Simply remove the tungsten carbide from the tool, and strike the tool against it for a spark. Strike the fire starter against the flammable lanyard to create a large, candle-like flame. When the tool is no longer in use, the tungsten carbide can be placed back onto the tool and stored in any compact space.

Survival or Emergency Kit

Build Your Own

Before you can start building a life-saving survival or emergency kit, you must consider the nature of its design. In other words, you must ensure that your emergency gear suits your environment. Building a helpful survival kit requires making strategic decisions about what you put inside it and – equally important – how it looks. Your emergency kit's supplies will largely depend on where you plan to use them. Suppose you're venturing on a wilderness expedition or looking for something to carry around daily. In that case, all of Exotac's products are simply must-haves for all survival kits regardless of your environment. Here are a few Exotac items to consider:

• Exotac ToolRoll is the perfect canvas rolling bag, a compact solution for carrying all your fire-starting gear with you in your desired location. It has strong hook and loop closure straps to secure its contents; it also includes five elastic slip pockets and five mesh pockets.
• Exotac FireSleeve is a flexible lighter case that fits classic BIC Lighters and creates a waterproof barrier around the lighter. It has an integral strap at the top that can provide hands-free use if needed.
• Exotac MatchCap XL is an indestructible waterproof match case for storing matches and other survival gear. It includes a safety-match striker located inside the cap protected by an O-ring. The capsule can fit matches or other equipment up to 2.9 inches in size.
• Exotac FireRod, NanoStriker, and PolyStrikers are our unique, striking tools designed to create the most prodigious spark for its size. It comes in various sizes, colors, and fire striking needs.

• Exotac TitanLight is the first rugged, waterproof, refillable lighter on the market that uses readily available liquid fuel. This lighter won't leak, and the O-ring seals allow longer intervals between lighter fluid refills.
