Anticorrosion Sealing Caps for Mechanical Fasteners.

Abstract

This report describes the development and testing of a device that prevents or at least inhibits corrosion in fastened metal joints, and presents test results. The device consists of a cup-shaped receptacle, partially filled with a sealant, and is dimensioned to fit over bolt or screw heads. When applied over these fasteners, the device excludes moisture and effectively retards corrosion. It is called an Anticorrosion Sealing Cap for Mechanical Fasteners. p26
