An adapter assembly is used with a pipe alignment tool for aligning a pipe flange having circumferentially spaced bolt apertures therein with a mating annular surface locating circumferentially spaced threaded fasteners therein. The pipe alignment tool has a clamp member secured about the pipe flange and one or more supporting members mounted on the clamp member so as to protrude axially beyond the pipe flange towards the mating annular surface. The adapter assembly includes i) a mounting body arranged to be mounted to extend in a circumferential direction about at least some of the threaded fasteners of the mating annular surface and ii) a cylindrical supporting surface located externally on the mounting body and adapted to be engaged by the supporting members of the pipe alignment tool to allow for axial and rotational adjustments between the pipe flange and the mating annular surface. |
