The Compound Flex-5 Detonite Tape represented a plastic-based explosive adhesive, a product of Merr-Sonn Munitions, Inc.. This tape incorporated detonite within its structure and was manufactured in rolls of five meter length. Being a stable explosive, it necessitated substantial heat or an electrical current to trigger its detonation. Due to its flexible and adhesive nature, Compound Flex-5 Detonite Tape could be applied in diverse configurations, enabling controlled explosions for tasks like breaching hatches and hull plating.
