This one appears to be made of lead as it is very soft, with a brass screw and is right hand thread. The wire is not original but that is how it came. No markings on it. Anyone any ideas?

Hello,
Your fuze really looks like a fuze for Guidetti grenade (used by french army during WW1). This fuze was made in different versions.

Thank you Minen, that's definitely the one. I have seen the grenades before but didn't put them together. The launcher is a strange piece of kit though!
