Default RE: Variation on a FOD screen

I forgot one thing....The outer stainless steel ring aound this type of screen is just crimped to the screen material....It can work loose if the crimp is not done properly at the factory, possibly exposing stray wires that can become FOD. You might want to run a bead of glue around the perimeter of the screen where the screen material meets the stainless steel outer ring to seal it all up as a precaution. Just a suggestion.
