The lugs are aligned with associated keys (14). in a modification the strip (30) is slid lengthwise around the shell Into a dovetail groove (40; Fig. 6) with overhanging edges (42) which trap the edges of the strip (30) the strip being fed in through a slot (50). When fully in the groove the edges (42) of the groove can be spun over onto the edges of the strip. The strip can be located in a thinwalled keyway section of the shell without the need for soldering or welding.
