FASTENER AND SEALANT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18148017 titled 'FASTENER AND SEALANT
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a fastener with threaded terminal ends and a sealant on the intermediate region.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Fastener with threaded terminal ends
- Sealant on the intermediate region
Potential Applications: The technology can be used in various industries such as construction, automotive, and manufacturing for securing components together.
Problems Solved: The technology helps prevent leaks and corrosion by providing a sealant on the fastener.
Benefits:
- Enhanced durability and longevity of fastened components
- Reduced maintenance costs due to improved sealing capabilities
Commercial Applications: The fastener can be used in a wide range of commercial applications where secure and leak-proof fastening is required, such as in plumbing, machinery assembly, and automotive manufacturing.
Questions about Fastener Technology: 1. How does the sealant on the fastener help prevent leaks and corrosion?
- The sealant creates a barrier that prevents moisture and other corrosive elements from reaching the threaded terminal ends.
2. What are the potential cost savings associated with using a fastener with a sealant?
- By reducing the risk of leaks and corrosion, the technology can help lower maintenance costs and extend the lifespan of fastened components.
Original Abstract Submitted
A fastener is provided with a pair of terminal ends with an intermediate region therebetween, with at least one of the terminal ends being threaded. The fastener is further provided with a sealant at least partially disposed on the intermediate region.
