How many times do you open and close the gas cap on your car? Once a week? Twice a week? More often? Over the life of a vehicle, you might fasten and unfasten the cap thousands of times.
Engineers at Blau, a subsidiary of Magna Energy Storage Systems GmbH in Weiz, Austria, have thought a lot about that. Blau assembles fuel tanks, fillers, and caps for fuel tanks and radiators. The company’s caps are known for their durability and tight fit. Combining various metal and plastic parts, the caps prevent unnecessary evaporation of fuel, which saves money and protects the environment.
