A process to repair a pipe including the steps of preparing a pair of sleeve halves which together extend around a circumference of the pipe. Each of the pair of sleeve halves has a pair of opposed beveled edges and each of the pair of sleeve halves has a pair of opposed recessed grooves on an inner side of the sleeve halves. One of the pair of sleeve halves is installed around the pipe. A backing strip is inserted at each of the opposed recessed grooves of the one sleeve halve. Another of the sleeve halves is installed around the pipe so that the recessed grooves receive and retain the backing strips. The pair of sleeve halves are heated with at least one induction heating coil and then the pair of sleeve halves and the backing strips are welded together.

A clamp comprising a band, the band comprising first and second edges, first and second lug elements connected proximate to the first and second band edges, multiple bolts extending transversely between the first and second lug elements, the first lug element comprising a transversely extending lug finger having a finger bearing surface, the second lug element comprising a lug finger land having a bearing surface, the lug finger extending transversely between the first and second lug elements, the finger bearing surfaces of the lug finger and the lug finger land contoured relative to each other such that tightening the band to reduce a gap between the edges of the band in a first range causes the first lug element to rotate in a first direction of rotation and in a second range causes the first lug element to rotate in a second direction opposite to the first direction of rotation.

A shield and clip assembly is provided for use with a joint that connects the ends of pipes conveying a fluid under pressure. The joint includes a primary retention feature for retaining the connected pipe ends. The shield and clip assembly includes a cover configured to encapsulate the joint and the ends of the pipes sufficiently to ensure that the connected ends will not fully disengage from the joint and to ensure that leakage or spray, if any, of the fluid being conveyed from a leaking joint will be attenuated or shielded. The joint may be an in-line quick connector joint.

A pipe clamp device for the compression of a gasket relative to a pipe joint comprises a clamping ring having interconnectable portions with a peripheral gasket-engaging surface and adapted for disposition around a pipe, connecting devices to connect the ring to an anchor ring to apply a generally axial clamping force to the clamping ring and thereby to the gasket, compression devices operable to cause radially inward contraction of the ring portions and consequent radial compression of the sealing gasket, and a varying diameter inner peripheral surface on the anchor ring to allow use on pipes of various diameters.
