From the brand
ABOUT US
Exotac was founded by a Purdue Engineering graduate with a passion for all things earth and man-made. We are a family-owned small business based just outside of Atlanta, Georgia. Melding a penchant for sleek, sexy and functional design with a dedication to creating the highest-quality outdoor products, we aim to stay true to our roots by keeping engineering at the core of our business.
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
We spend countless hours developing new ideas to bring the best products to market. We learn through experience. We learn by getting out there in the great outdoors, getting dirty, trying, failing, persisting, and surviving. We learn from our own experiences, as well as others’, how to make products better and easier to use so that they work when it counts the most.
ENGINEERING
Our engineers work to constantly push the limits of manufacturing to create the best possible products of the highest caliber. High performance materials and rigorous field testing ensure that our products are built to endure everything from the wear and tear of everyday carry to the harsh conditions of exploration.
QUALITY
“Gear for life” is our motto and we stand behind it. We believe in designing and manufacturing products that will last forever and function when you absolutely need them the most.
MADE IN THE USA
American manufacturing is the core of our business. We’ve worked relentlessly to become vertically integrated so nearly every step of the manufacturing process now happens in our factory, under the watchful eyes of the engineers who designed and tested every feature. If a problem arises, we can correct it on the spot, ensuring the highest quality along with a nimble product development cycle.
INSTANT FIRE: Strike the Ferro rod with the provided tungsten carbide tool for instant fires; ditch complicated fire starters for this essential survival gear.
QUALITY DESIGN: The all-in-one function of polySTRIKER blends lighter materials using recycled ABS plastic and quality metals. The tungsten carbide striker is the same material presented in the Exotac nanoSTRIKER.
5/16-INCH FERRO ROD: The polySTRIKER XL is the largest and easiest Ferro rod to use with a waterproof design and ability to supply up to 10,000 fire-starter strikes.
MINIMALIST DESIGN: The polySTRIKER XL features a snap-in tungsten carbide striker that fits right into the handle, folding small enough to fit in any pocket, backpack, canister, survival kit, etc.
MADE IN THE USA: All of our products are beautifully designed, masterfully forged, and hand-finished in the USA.
Customers say
Customers find the fire starter produces good, flying sparks and works better than cheaper alternatives. The product is well-designed, with one customer noting the quality of the plastic handle, and they appreciate its build quality, noting it’s thick and will last a long time. They like the storage capacity, with the striker storing perfectly, and one customer describes it as the best ferro rod and stricker combo. The size receives mixed feedback – while some find it compact, others mention the lanyard is too short.
