Zusammenfassung:An improved method for coating multi-piece explosion-proof housings with a corrosion-resistant material which permits assembly and disassembly without interference with the corrosion-proofing function of the coating is disclosed. The method features assembly of the portions of the housing together with spacer means and dipping or otherwise coating the housing portions with a corrosion-resistant material. The spacer is formed in order to cause seal members to be formed directly in the coating which are brought into compression with one another upon subsequent assembly of the housing without the spacer so that an effective seal is provided.
