Claims17
A detonating cord retainer comprising:
- a base having a bottom end and a top end;
- a bore extending into the base from the bottom end;
- an aperture in the top end of the base adapted to allow detonation communication from the top end of the base into the bore;
- a first retention arm having an inner face extending substantially orthogonally from the top side of the base;
- a second retention arm having an inner face extending substantially orthogonally from the top side of the base;
- and
- wherein the inner face of the first retention arm is substantially parallel to and facing the inner face of the second retention arm.
