Shagun Gel

Shagun Gel

Shagun Gel is a medium-strength, large-diameter explosive, specifically designed as a non-cap-sensitive and ammonium nitrate-based gel slurry. It serves as a secondary explosive, ideal for use in soft and medium rock formations, providing a cost-effective solution for blasting when paired with primary explosives. Its innovative packaging ensures a high level of safety against mechanical impacts and friction, and it boasts excellent water resistance while facilitating optimal fragmentation during use.
