In a method of coupling two pipes (1, 14), which at their end have a circumferential bead (2, 15), use is made of an annular clamping band (3), which is applied on the outside of the end beads (2, 15) and is tightened around the same when the pipes (1, 14) are placed end to end. The clamping band (3) has on its inside a sealing ring, which is arranged against the end beads (2, 15). A first recess of the sealing ring is formed on and held on the outside of the end bead (2) of the one pipe (1) in such a manner that a second recess of the sealing ring is arranged axially outside this end bead (2). The second recess of the sealing ring is then formed on the end bead (15) of the second pipe (14), and finally the clamping band (3) is tightened around the end beads (2, 15) with the sealing ring placed between the clamping band (3) and the end beads (2, 15). <IMAGE> |
