The invention relates to a propellant cage (10) for an inflator, especially for a tubular inflator of an airbag module, comprising a substantially tubular base (11) which forms, on the one hand, a gas inlet opening (12a) and, on the other hand, a gas outlet opening (12b) along its longitudinal axis (L), wherein at least one lateral gas flow opening (13) is configured in a circumferential wall (12) of the base (11), wherein the base (11) includes a radially outwardly extending collar (11c) having at least one frontal gas flow opening (14) in the area of the gas flow opening (12c).
A propellant cage (10) for an inflator of an airbag module, comprising a substantially tubular base (11) which along its longitudinal axis (L) forms a gas inlet opening (12a) and a gas outlet opening (12c), the base (11) defining a passageway that longitudinally extends through the propellant cage (10) from the gas inlet opening (12a) to the gas outlet opening (12c), at least one lateral gas flow opening (13) being formed in a circumferential wall (12) of the base (11), wherein the base (11) includes a radially outwardly extending collar (11c) which has at least one frontal gas flow opening (14) in the area of the gas outlet opening (12c).
