UCO Stormproof Match Features

Windproof

UCO Stormproof Matches will light and burn up to 15 seconds, even in the strongest winds.

Waterproof

If UCO Stormproof Matches get wet, wipe them off before use and strike on a dry striker to ignite.

Submersible

UCO Stormproof Matches can survive being dropped in a puddle or dirt while burning and will relight as long as there is phosphorous remaining (the orange section).

Ideal for Harsh Conditions

Matches that are windproof and waterproof are reliable in situations where cooking, generating warmth or making signal fires are vital to survival.

UCO Stormproof Match Case Features

Durable Case

Waterproof, durable ABS plastic case keeps matches and strikers dry and protected from the elements.

Waterproof Case

An O-ring creates a waterproof seal that protects the matches and strikers from moisture. The case also floats for extra peace of mind.

Replaceable Striker

External, integrated striker is easy to replace if it becomes wet or worn. Two spare strikers are included and stored inside the case.

No-Slip Grip

Molded, vertical ribbing on the outside of the case makes it easy to grip it in cold and wet conditions when matches may be needed the most.

Product Description

Hedge your bets against the weather with a UCO Stormproof Match Kit. Stormproof Matches are windproof, waterproof, light up quickly and consistently in driving rain, heavy winds, and falling snow with a burn time of up to 15 seconds-plus they will relight after being submerged in water. Each kit includes 25 Stormproof Matches, 3 strikers, and a cotton ball inside a waterproof case that floats. The waterproof, durable ABS plastic case can hold up to 40 Stormproof Matches (alternate the match tips with some facing up and some facing down) for longer trips for when you need the added security to build a fire. Being able to reliably make a fire is vital for cooking, generating warmth, and in survival situations, making signal fires. UCO Stormproof Matches are perfect for camping, emergency kits, and should be part of every 10 Essentials check list. If a match becomes wet, just wipe dry before use. If a striker becomes wet, the striker will not work, but needs to dry first so that the surface is once again firm, so use a spare striker (2 spares included) until then. Matches and strikers will last for many years as long as they remain dry and protected from the elements inside the waterproof case or inside a sealed plastic bag. Easily refill your Stormproof Match Kit with UCO Stormproof Matches sold in single (25 matches) or twin-packs (50 matches). Length of match: 2.75 inches (7 cm); Kit Weight: 1.7 oz. (48 g). Designed in Seattle, Made in India. 1-year manufacturer's warranty.

100% satisfied with this product. They always work even after being stored for over 10 years. the UCO Stormproof Match Kit should be the core of every fire staring kit.If you remove some of the matches you will have enough room to add a Bic mini lighter and a little extra started material creating a very small and lightweight fire kit for hiking or to keep in your vehicles or emergency kit.
