SEALING MEMBER FOR ATTACHMENT COMPONENTS

摘要

The embodiments described herein provide a sealing member and exemplary methods for preventing fluid leaks into a mating body when a low-compression fastener is used by providing a barrier between two mating surfaces. The sealing member (10) comprises a generally ring-shaped body having elastic properties including an upper surface (14) and a lower surface (16). At least one upper bead (22) is disposed on the upper surface. At least one lower bead (24) is disposed on the lower surface. The at least one upper bead (22) is radially offset from the at least one lower bead (24).
