摘要

A method of joining together a pipe pin and a pipe socket, comprising the steps of inserting the pin into the socket; placing an elastic sealing member with a tapered or tapered cross section in the annular space remaining between the pin and the socket, the sealing member having an outer transverse face which, before forming the joint, is inclined along its entire length with respect to to the geometrical axis of the sealing member; subjecting the sealing member to a substantially axial compression by means of a compression member, the compression member having a pressing face for engaging the outer transverse face of the sealing member extending substantially perpendicular to the axis of the sealing member; whereby upon applying the axial compression, the pressure face engages and first supports the radially innermost part of the outer transverse face of the sealing member.
