disagree  Brett Richards, B.S., M.B.A.: The squib is the just the small explosive device that blows the seal off the fire bottle containing the pressurized Halon fire extinquisher in order to allow the Halon to be released onto the fire.

neutral  Brett Richards, B.S., M.B.A.: Un squib es un mecanismo explosivo, y en este caso, de aire a presión. Quizás "accionador explosivo" o "accionador de aire a presión."
