FireStarting Aids

FireStarting Aids

Our premium FireSteel.com firesteel formula ensures you plenty of white hot sparks for starting your fire.  But when starting any fire you still need good tinder to catch your spark or flame which in turn is transfered to larger pieces of wood.

What if the naturally available tinder is damp or wet?  Experienced outdoorsmen and survial experts always carry some pre-made tinder with them.

FireSteel.com provides you with excellent choices in tinder that you can take with you wherever you go.  Choose from our newest addition: the Fiber Light Fire Starter, which is an awesome wood-based tinder made right here in the USA and our selection of pure magnesium firestarter products!

  • Our FireSteel.com Magnesium rods are either 3/8" or 1/2" in diameter and are sold in a variety of lengths and with an optional lanyard hole pre-drilled for you. The Magnesium Bar is 3/8" x 1" x 3" long. Magnesium Tinder Rods
