British Anti-Aircraft No.700/701 Fuze

Post by Dave8472 »

Hi all, today’s Fuze post is the No.700/701 found a No.700 last year in a very intact state (made 1943), thought I would put it up with some details for anyone new finding one. There are a few articles on the internet but these extracts are from an old book and thought you might like to see them, hence a load of pictures. If you have one I find alloy wheel cleaner that contains Hydrochloric acid is ideal to clean them up, it removes most of the rust and heavy corrosion, then buff up with T-Cut or Brasso, Dave

In Production from 1942-1947

Thanks to the guy's @ BOCN for the details
