Our patent pending, vented 2nd Generation fire pistons feature state of the art technology, O ring seal reliability and fire lightng performance capability that is simply incredible....

Because O rings seal so effectively, all fire pistons having an O ring suffer from an inherent drawback. Trapped air inside the cylinder prevents full insertion. Like a spring, the compressed air forces the piston back out of the cylinder making it inconvenient to carry and causing the risk of a lost piston. We find solutions such as putting a thread under the o ring or changing O rings to be unacceptable and have therefore developed a solution to this problem - and it works so well its being patented.

The solution was to engineer an integral pressure relief valve that allows the trapped air to be released yet that is easily re-sealed, enabling full compression for fire lighting. Once the valve is closed, the piston is effectively trapped by vacuum preventing its accidental loss in the field.

We now offer Custom Laser Engraved Art and Graphics.

The new 2nd Generation Pendant Pistons offer nearly the same lighting capability as the larger versions and a distinct advantange in carrying. Pendent Pistons offer a liquid filled compass in the cap

For the fire by friction enthusiast, the nylon carry cord makes an exceptional low slippage cord for bow drill fire making. By adding the optional Hidden Fero Rod the Pendant Pistons offer three different fire making methods in one compact device.

Due to their higher compression, the full size pistons have a slight advantage in efficiency when it comes to lighting more challenging tinders. Tinders such as cattail fluff may require more than one attempt and will first char then ignite to coal. For most commonly used tinders the Pendant Pistons will ignite in a single effort just like their larger siblings.

Pendent Piston - $59.95

Can't decide which model to buy? Why not have all three! The new "Convertible" comes with both tinder bag and lanyard and lets you re-configure your fire piston to Standard, Lanyard or TinderCarry style by simply changing the vent screw. How's that for versatility...

"WOW, I like it very much. It looks better than the pictures. I used it right out of the box and it worked one the first plunge. Thank you so much, I will enjoy this fire piston for many years to come. "
