AP Excel/Apex Dets DTH – Down The Hole Detonators

Description :

DTH detonators are developed to provide accurate down the hole-delay in the blast. It consists of a shock tube of required length, with delay detonator and a suitable connector. In order to arrest the ingress of water, the connector end is sealed. The other end of the tube is crimped to a delay detonator with a suitable plug.

  • True bottom initiation is achieved
  • Ground vibration is controlled
  • Air blast noise is minimized
  • Good fragmentation
  • As the explosive shock wave is confined, there is no desensitization of explosives. This results in higher explosive efficiency.
  • Risk of accidental initiation due to stray current, static charges and radio frequency signals is ruled out.

These are used for quarrying and long hole-blasting.
