METHOD OF JOINING PIPES AND FITTINGS

摘要

A method for joining a first conduit section with a second conduit section. The method includes: a) inserting a first end of the second conduit section in an open first end of the first conduit section with a gasket extending between an inner surface of the first conduit section and an outer surface of the second conduit section; b) positioning a flexible substrate having a bonding agent provided on at least a portion of an inner side of the flexible substrate to extend from an outer surface of the first conduit to an outer surface of the second conduit; c) applying pressure to the flexible substrate whereby the bonding agent is pressed against an outer surface of the first and second conduit sections; and d) heating the bonding agent whereby the bonding agent is secured to the outer surface of the first and second conduit sections.

1. A method for joining a first conduit section having an open first end and an inner surface with a second conduit section having an outer surface, the method comprising:
a) inserting a first end of the second conduit section in the open first end of the first conduit section with a gasket extending between the inner surface of the first conduit section and the outer surface of the second conduit section; b) positioning a flexible substrate having an activatable bonding agent provided on at least a portion of an inner side of the flexible substrate to extend from an outer surface of the first conduit to an outer surface of the second conduit; c) applying pressure to the flexible substrate whereby the bonding agent is pressed against an outer surface of the first and second conduit sections; and, d) activating the bonding agent whereby the bonding agent is secured to the outer surface of the first and second conduit sections.
