Mechanical couplings conventional compression couplings

Minahan, J.T.

Mechanical couplings for water, gas, and oil with sealing rings of rubber have been in use in the pipeline industry for almost an hundred years. They provide flexibility, limited angularity, and the ability to accommodate changing conditions without loss of seal that is not to be found in other types of joints. Mechanical couplings consist of a sleeve that slips over the ends of two adjacent pipes, rings of rubber or other material that compacts between the wall of the pipes and either end of the sleeve by mechanical means. During the nearly one hundred years that these couplings have been in use, there have been many improvements in materials and manufacturing methods but the basic design concept has not changed at all.
