Balloon Exploder

Do you have any advice for using Balloon Exploders?

What if the pins do not eject?

Do you have any advice for using Pneumatic Balloon Exploders?

1. Pretest Exploders with a pressurized line prior to rigging. Make sure that the exploder pin is fully retracted and the base of the exploder is smooth to the touch prior to attaching it to the balloons.

2. After rigging the air line, use 11" balloons to test the system. This will insure that the air line has been properly rigged and that all the large balloons will pop on cue.

3. Fully inflate the large balloons. The surface of the balloons must be taut where the Exploders are attached. If the balloon is soft or under inflated, the exploder pin will not pop the balloon.

4. Use two Exploders per balloon, one Continual Exploder and one Elbow End Exploder. Attach the Exploders to the center section of the balloon. This is the weakest part of the balloon.

5. Use a high quality, 2" wide, clear packing tape (3M works well) to attach the Exploders to balloons. Use only two pieces of tape, one on each tab of exploder. Do not tape over the sides or the top of the exploder. Do not coat the outside of the balloon with Balloon Shine or Hi-FloatÐthis will prevent the tape from sticking.

6. Use Conwin's Insider Balloon Stuffing Tool to fill the large balloon with the maximum number of small balloons.

7. Make sure the cylinder has a minimum of 800 PSI before detonating the balloons.

8. Hold the detonator button down continually until all the balloons have popped.

What if the pins do not eject?

Spray silicone lubricant directly where the pins are located.
