Explosion welding is used for splicing thick pipes (1 and 2) or the transport of oil and gas. A plating ring (4) and its explosive (7) are located inside the pipes, and a support (12 and 13) surrounding the two pipes (1 and 2) in order to limit the deformation occurring in the pipes (1 and 2) during the actual welding process. Since the pipes (1 and 2) are deformed, the support (12 and 13) will also be deformed. To enable repeated used of the support (12 and 13), the section (20) thereof which is subjected to the deformation is replaced by an elastomeric material. |
