Abstract

A squib connector that has a slideable locking element with a locking protrusion for engaging a portion of the squib connector housing in the fully locked position where the locking protrusions are thus outwardly biased into locking engagement with the squib and any tension on the cable or connector housing tends to splay apart the locking arms into tighter engagement against the squib locking shoulders.
