The subject matter of this present invention is a pipe joint with a socket ( 1 ) and a pipe ( 2 ), that is closed by pushing a ring ( 3 ) onto the socket ( 1 ). The joint further comprises a sealing element ( 4 ) that is placed into a chamber ( 5 ) of the socket ( 1 ). The chamber is executed as a diametral expansion of the socket ( 1 ) and is deformed in a defined manner when the ring ( 3 ) is pushed on. Due to this the sealing element ( 4 ) between the wall of the chamber ( 5 ) and the pipe ( 2 ) is compressed. Furthermore, when the joint is closed, the socket ( 1 ) is compressed with the pipe ( 2 ), due to which a mechanically stable joint is produced, that additionally serves as an emergency seal.
