The fastening system consists of a lug (22) of a rigid cellular plastics moulded onto a rigid section (10) of the pipe. A connector (14), of a rubber- or elastomer-based material, is fitted to the end of the rigid pipe section. The connector is held in place by an overmoulded plastics ring (16) made from the same material as the lug and fitted during the same operation. The lug (22) and ring (16) can be independent of one another, can be connected by a strip of the same material, or made in one piece. In a variant of the design a layer of a vibration-damping material, such as rubber or an elastomer, can be fitted between the lug and the rigid pipe section. The vibration-damping material can also be extended in the form of a sleeve over the end of the rigid pipe. |
