The perforator includes a cylindrical case (12), an explosive material, a metal cap (14), and a detonating cord (46). The case has a bulkhead (50) at a first end, an open mouth at a second end, and an interior volume. The first end includes a post (54) having a slot (56). The explosive material is disposed in the interior volume. The metal cap (14) covers the open mouth of the case and has a disk section (20) defined by a separator ring (22).
