Abstract
An igniter tube assembly includes an igniter, an igniter tower with a radially extending portion, a ferrule with a radially extending portion, and a retainer with a radially extending portion. The ferrule and retainer capture the radially extending portion of the igniter tower and sealing surface provides an area for the ferrule to interface with the igniter tower. The igniter moves relative to the casing in which it is secured while a fluid seal between the igniter and ferrule controls air flow.
