A shock tube detonator is a non-electric explosive fuze or initiator in the form of a small-diameter hollow plastic tubing used to transport an initiating signal to an explosive by means of a shock wave (also known as a percussive wave) traveling the length of the tube. Shock tube conveys a detonation signal to a detonator.
