PLASTIC LINED PIPE JOINT AND METHOD OF JOINNING

摘要

The joint comprises a plastic lined metal conduit having a radially outwardly projecting flange which receives the loose ring. The split V-clamp is disposed about the loose ring for forcing the plastic liner flange against an opposed liner flange. The adhesive sealer is disposed between the loose ring and the adjacent pipe flange. The sealer may be a hot melt adhesive or an epoxy resin. The sealer material may be electrically conductive. The sealer is present in sufficient quantity to adhere the loose ring to the flange and fill any space which occurs between the ring and flange. The joint is readily formed regardless of the orientation of the pipes to be jointed.
