ABSTRACT:
A device for use in joining wires such as electrical conductors is disclosed. The device comprises a ferrule, the exterior surface of which is covered with a coat or layer comprising an explosive composition. The method of joining includes coaxially aligning the end portions of two wires within the ferrule and then detonating the explosive composition to produce a metallurgical bond between the ferrule and each wire end. Apparatus for forming the novel splice is also disclosed.
