blasting cap
Explosive trigger device
A blasting cap is a small detonator used to trigger explosives.
It contains a primary explosive that ignites from an electrical current, fuse, or shock, producing a small explosion powerful enough to set off larger, more stable explosives like dynamite or TNT.
Blasting caps are essential in mining, demolition, and construction.
