摘要

In a method of sealing gas-main pipe joints an annular mould (1) is applied to the inner surfaces of pipe ends (11 and 12) on each side of the joint and covering the joint. The edges of the mould are clamped to the respective pipe ends by expanding bands (4) applied internally of the fitted mould and a sealant resin is injected between the mould and the inner surfaces of the pipe ends and into any spaces in the joint. The injected sealant resin is allowed to cure and the bands and the mould are removed.
