A feedthrough is provided for mounting in and electrically insulating a conductive wire from the casing of a device such as a battery cell for a cardiac pacer. The feedthrough is a non-glass member at least a portion of which was cured in situ and formed to a shape and size generally complementary to the shape and size of the casing opening through which it is mounted and to the shape and size of the conductive wire that it mounts.

A method of providing a feedthrough member for securely mounting a conductive wire through a casing wall and for insulating the conductive wire from the casing, comprising: providing a casing having a wall with an opening therethrough; positioning a conductive wire within and generally parallel to the axis of the opening through the casing; forming in situ at least a portion of a feedthrough member within said opening, said in situ forming procedure including inserting a polymeric material within and in contact with said casing wall opening and said conductive wire, said in situ forming procedure further including subsequently curing said polymeric material therewithin to form a completed polymeric feedthrough member that has a conductive wire mounted therethrough and adhered thereto and that is adhered to the casing wall opening.
