An improved approach to blasting, demolition and general quarrying and mining. AutoStem Blasting Cartridges enable the possibility of focused, local blasting without the requirement for large clearing areas, discontinuous mining cycles and traditional safety concern.

Our services

  • Self-Stemming Blasting Cartridge

    With an emphasis on safety, AutoStem rock breaking cartridges do not require any tamping or stemming action.

    Upon initiation, the cartridge functioning includes a stemming action which closes the borehole for the blaster.

  • Safety Switch Technology 

    All AutoStem blasting cartridges are fitted with a patented safety switch, preventing any possible initiation prior to "unlocking" the product for use in the borehole. 

    The AutoStem Blasting Cartridge does not require the use of a detonator, meaning explosive accessories are not a requirement when blasting.
