<p>A gasket (1) for a pipe joint (3) between two pipe ends (9), the gasket comprising a sealing portion (5) for producing a seal between the two pipe ends (9) and a gripping portion (7) for gripping at least one of the pipe ends (9) to hold the gasket (1) in position, wherein the sealing portion (5) and the gripping portion (7) are formed integrally. An additional steel wire (31) can be used to pre-stress the gripping portion (7), thereby resulting in a reliable means for mounting the gasket (1) on a pipe end in a self centering manner.</p> |
