Dyno Nobel’s Super EZ Connectors form the attachments of a precision, nonelectric, timed detonation system. They link together shocktubes, a type of specialized fuse which burns at a rate of 7,000 feet per second. The connectors are used in industries such as mining, excavation, quarries and demolition work. Each of the connectors has a small detonator with a timed charge within its body. These clip onto other shocktubes (up to six in total), which ignite and travel to other tubes or the final explosive charge. The series of timed delays helps the trained blasting technician plan the progress of a blast, maximizing the amount of rock and dirt moved.
