ABSTRACT:
An anti-theft bolt guard is shown having a cylindrical body (65) for placing over a nut (60) of an installed bolt (30). Third washer (45) engages bolt (30) and the body (65) is affixed to the bolt (30) with a threaded circular guard nut (85). The guard nut (85) is tightened with a special key (120). A fourth washer (46) engages the guard nut (85) and an adhesive (57) material may be inserted. The guard nut (85) is then sealed off with the insertion of a press fit seal cover (95) thus providing a device that prevents easy access to the nut (60) and removal of the bolt (30).
Protection for the exposed head (32) of a bolt can be obtained by inserting the bolt (30) through a head guard (35) where a press fit head cover (25) is inserted in the first end (36). An adhesive (57) can be inserted to increase the difficulty of removal of the protection device.
