EXTERNAL CLAMSHELL SLIP JOINT SEAL
Abstract:
The disclosure describes a slip joint seal (100) for a slip joint (100) that includes an outer pipe (102) and an inner pipe (104). The slip joint seal (100) includes a clamshell clamp (202) with an upper portion (206) and a lower portion (208) mateable to one another to form a hollow cylindrical ring (209). The ring has a base portion, a protruding portion, an inner surface (211), and an outer surface (111). A band (210) fits around the base portion for securing the upper and lower portions to one another around the slip joint (100). The slip joint seal (100) has a ceramic fiber filament (204) fiber with a first portion (214) that fits within the base portion and surrounds a portion of the slip joint (100) around a slidable interface (113). A second portion (216) fits within the protruding portion and fills an annular channel (114) of the slip joint (100). The clamshell clamp (202) and the filament (204) discourage leaking from the interface (113) between the inner pipe (104) while allowing relative movement between the inner pipe (104) and the outer pipe (102).
