ABSTRACT:
An inflator socket pin collar which includes integral electrostatic discharge protection for an initiator of an air bag inflator. The collar includes a body having first and second opposed ends. An upper chamber is disposed in the first end and a lower chamber disposed in the second end. The second chamber is capable of receiving the electrical connector of the vehicle. An insert is located in the first chamber. The insert includes a pair of socket pins for connecting the initiator to an electrical connector of a vehicle. A metal oxide varistor is disposed in the insert for protecting the initiator from electrostatic discharge. The initiator is supported by the collar and pins of the initiator mate with the socket pins of the insert.
