Abstract
A gas generating type tool includes a propellant charge having an axially extending passage receiving therein an ignition tube containing a quantity of easily ignited, fast burning powder. The propellant and ignition tube are separately handled and/or transported until ready to run into the well. The tube slides easily into the propellant passage. The propellant passage is at least about 12% larger in cross-section than the ignition tube and not more than about 55% larger in cross-section. In circular cross-sections, the propellant passage is at least about 6% greater in diameter and not more than about 25% greater in diameter.
