A reforming pipe clamp comprises a pair of rigid arcuate members joined at corresponding ends to form an annulus adapted to encircle a pipe adjacent one end thereof, the inside diameter of the annulus being greater than the outside diameter of the encircled pipe. The annulus has a plurality of circumferentially spaced, radially adjustable force applying members which are engageable with the encircled pipe for reforming the pipe. The annulus carries circumferentially spaced supports capable of projecting beyond the end of the encircled pipe to provide support for one end of a confronting pipe that is to be joined to the encircled pipe. The supports are movable from their supporting position to a second position in which the entire circumference of the joint between the two pipes is accessible to a welder.
