ABSTRACT:
A sealable fastener for insertion into an fastener opening in a receiving structure includes a fastener shank with a shank first end having a shank first end wall and a shank second end having a shank second end wall, a shank side wall extending between the shank first end wall and the shank second end wall and a circumferential channel recessed into the shank side wall; and a sealant delivery groove in the shank side wall having a delivery groove entry port in the shank second end and extending to a delivery groove exit port opening into the circumferential channel; so that a flowable sealant placed in the fastener opening is drivable into the sealant delivery groove and around the circumferential channel as the fastener shank is inserted into the fastener opening, creating a circumferential seal between the fastener shank and the receiving structure fastener opening.
