Abstract

See full text

A solderless fuel tank filler neck joint including a resilient seal interposed between a flanged opening in the fuel tank and a filler pipe. The seal is compressed between the filler neck and the flange by mechanical deformation of the pipe after it is inserted through the flanged opening. Mechanical deformation pulls the seal into a mating pocket surrounding the opening compressing an annular bead formed on the seal thereby providing a resilient secure leak tight joint.
