ABSTRACT:
A protective device that may be used to shield the corner and/or edges of an object from damage during shipping, storage, handling or the like comprises a cap member, first and second outer arms and first and second inner arms. The arms are connected (either directly or indirectly) to the cap member and extend downwardly therefrom. The first and second inner arms are located generally opposite the first and second outer arms, respectively. The first and second inner arms may each include a protrusion that projects toward the first and second outer arms, respectively. Additionally, the first and second outer arms may be positioned so as to define an obtuse angle (e.g., 135 degrees) opposite the vertical plane defined by the downwardly extending first inner arm.
