Abstract
The present disclosure generally pertains to a device for separating two or more components of an explosive device. The elongated hollow device has an interior space for holding the components as well as two open ends. A separator is positioned within the device, thus creating at least two non-communicating compartments. The separator prevents the premature mixing of the components. Application of compressive force onto the circumference of the separator will cause the separator to fracture, thus mixing the components. The device increases safety and lowers costs associated with shipping explosive materials by keeping the components separated until immediately before use.
