Spool of trip wire with 2 nails in center?

Does anybody know what this is? Thanks!

Trip Wire

Likely from an M49A1 surface trip flare.

Thank you both!

Could also be from any of the simulator booby traps (M117 Flash, M118 Ilum, M119 Whistling). The older versions have wooden spools but the spool is the same size.

Hmm…. I have an old TM on boobytraps - I’ll have to dig it up and see if it’s in there. Thank you, I appreciate it!
