Abstract

A separating element comprises a body member for securing at least two parts together. The body member has an electrically ignitable separating charge disposed in tamped form within a recess therein, means operatively associated with the separating charge, which when a predetermined temperature has been reached, renders the explosive effect of the separating charge ineffective and ignition means for igniting the separating charge within said recess when separation of the parts is required.
