Abstract
A hollow, cylindrically shaped, elastically deformable sealant member is disposed over external threads of a mounting unit, and subsequently a driver element having internal threads matable with the external threads is screwed onto the external threads, an elasticity and inside diameter of the sealant member being such so as to tightly adhere to at least one turn of the external threads and an outer surface of the driver element to provide an environmental seal between the internal and external threads.
