ASSEMBLY OF A TUBE MADE FROM COMPOSITE MATERIAL AND A TUBULAR METAL PART

摘要

The invention relates to the assembly of a tube (1) made from composite material and a tubular metal part (2) in order to produce pipes. The assembly process comprises:-inserting a portion of the metal part (2) into the composite material tube (1); and-radially deforming the metal part (2) to a plastic deformation range sufficient to cause elastic deformation of said composite material tube (1), in order to obtain a radial contact between the outer wall of the metal part (2) and the inner wall of the composite material tube (1).
