RADOLID
PROTECTION CAPS
Radolid
Protection Caps will ensure proper bolting, even after years of
exposure to the elements!
At
left is an example of bolted joints with Radolid
Protection Caps (one cap cut open) and without protection caps.
After a five-year test, the effects of atmospheric corrosion is very
damaging and therefore costly.
Radolid
Protection Caps are easily installed by pressing the cap onto the
bolted joint by hand. The barbed edge snaps on and prevents the
caps from accidental removal. Radolid
Caps are reusable and can be re-applied to 2-3 times. To ensure against corrosion from condensation
accumulating in the caps, we recommend brushing nuts with Kleergel®
Corrosion Inhibitor.
