Japanese Patent JPS6354956
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
Two plastic pipes (6, 9) are connected by the steps of selecting the pipes such that the first pipe (9) has an unstrained O.D greater than the unstrained I.D. of the second pipe (6), flaring an end portion (7) of the second pipe (6) at ambient temperature, and thrusting an end portion (10) of the first pipe (9) a distance into the bore of the second pipe (6) thereby obtaining a gas-tight joint. A connector (40-45) may be substituted for the first pipe (9) and a third pipe may be similarly connected to the other end of the connector. Apparatus for performing the method and a connector suitable for use in the method are also described.
