(57)Abstract
A pipe coupling includes a housing and a conical split ring which is compressed to firmly clamp a pipe
received within the housing. The opposite ends of the split ring defining the split are laterally offset from each other
such as to permit the split ring to be compressed to substantiallY decrease its internal diameter, by the offset ends
moving in overlapping relation to each other, thereby enabling the split ring to clamp pipes having a wide range of
outer diameters.
