Abstract

See full text

A mechanical pipe coupling having segments joined end to end by connection members has arcuate surfaces and flanges in spaced relation to the arcuate surfaces on each segment. The coupling is positionable between a first pipe element having a cylindrical outer surface and a second pipe element having an end flange to couple the pipe elements to one another. The arcuate surfaces engage the outer surface of the first pipe element; the flanges engage the end flange on the second pipe element. One or more spacers support the coupling segments in spaced relation to one another to permit insertion of the first pipe element between the segments. The spacers are deformable upon tightening of the connection members to permit the arcuate surfaces to engage the pipe element and the flanges to align with the end flange.
