29 oct. 2012 - Web Shooters

Description:

Peter Parker develops twin devices, which he wears on his wrists, that can shoot his web fluid at high pressure. The spinneret mechanisms in each web-shooter are machined from stainless steel, except for the turbine component, which is machined out of a block of Teflon, and the two turbine bearings, which are made of amber and artificial sapphire. The wristlets and the web-fluid cartridges are mainly nickel-plated annealed brass. The wristlets have sharp steel nipples, which pierce the bronze caps when the cartridges are tightly wedged into their positions. The hand-wound solenoid-needle valve on each web-shooter is actuated by a palm switch; this, in turn, is protected by a band of spring steel which requires a 65-pound pressure to trigger it. The switch of each is situated high on the palm to avoid most unwanted firings. An additional safety measure, to prevent misfires while making a fist or carrying things, is that the trigger has to receive a double-tap from the middle and third fingers. The small battery compartment is protected by a rubber seal.
