Abstract

A method of securing a liner or inlay in an opening of a case surrounding a shaped explosive charge on all sides except for the opening, the opening facing the direction of the intended effect of the charge. The liner or inlay defines the shape of the charge in the direction of the intended effect of the charge. The method comprises immovably securing the liner or inlay in a direction parallel to the direction of the intended effect of the charge, and simultaneously resiliently securing the liner or inlay in a direction orthogonal to the direction of the intended effect of the charge, whereby a clearance is exists between an outer edge of the inlay or liner and an inner wall of the case.
