Bulk charges

DEMEX utilizes a high velocity (8050 m/s) military grade explosive. Each charge is manufactured at our facility. DEMEX standard charges come in 5", 6", 8" and 12" diameter sizes.

Cylindrical bulk charges are used to sever a wide range of tubulars. Piles or Caissons greater than 60" can be severed with several charges together in a bulk configuration. Sub-sea targets are easily severed using bulk charges as well.

DEMEX can customize charge sizes to suit your needs.

Shaped CHARGES

Shaped charges are used for precision cutting and utilize a smaller explosive charge. These charges can be made to any length upon request.

When shaped charges are used underwater, an air tight housing has to be used for the liner to form. DEMEX manufactures these housings on a job by job basis.
