ABSTRACT:
A thread protecting device particularly adaptable for use in protecting pipe threads and the threads on various machine parts to prevent them from being damaged during shipping and handling. The protector itself comprises a generally cup-shaped body having a continuous side wall which tapers outwardly for at least a portion of its axial length from a closed bottom end wall toward an open upper end. The side wall has a generally polygonal cross section adjacent the bottom end wall which gradually converges into a generally circular cross section adjacent the open upper end. The thread protector itself is preferably molded from plastic material.
