| 20110266714 | METHOD OF FORMING A PIPE FITTING - A pipe fitting includes a polymeric body molded into and fixedly connected to a metallic body, so that the metallic body extends around the polymeric body. The polymeric body extends around and is contiguous with a passageway of the pipe fitting, and at least partially defines a first opening of the passageway that is for being mated to a polymeric pipe. The metallic body extends around and is contiguous with the passageway, and at least partially defines a second opening of the passageway that is for being mated to a metallic pipe. | 11-03-2011 |
| 20110250306 | APPARATUS FOR FORMING A PIPE FITTING - A pipe fitting includes a polymeric body molded into and fixedly connected to a metallic body, so that the metallic body extends around the polymeric body. The polymeric body extends around and is contiguous with a passageway of the pipe fitting, and at least partially defines a first opening of the passageway that is for being mated to a polymeric pipe. The metallic body extends around and is contiguous with the passageway, and at least partially defines a second opening of the passageway that is for being mated to a metallic pipe. | 10-13-2011 |
| 20110049874 | Polymeric pipe fitting and gasket assembly and sealed polymeric pipe apparatus formed therewith - A polymeric pipe fitting assembly for joinder with a polymeric pipe section without using adhesives or other chemicals comprises a polymeric fitting and an elastomeric gasket formed as a unit, preferably by molding. The fitting has a main body portion with a pipe-receiving socket portion at one end. The gasket has a first axial portion molded in intimate sealed surface engagement interiorly within the socket portion and a second integral axial portion projecting axially from the socket portion. The axial portions of the gasket form a continuous interior wall surface for receiving a polymeric pipe section in peripheral surface contact with an exterior surface of the pipe section. The second axial portion of the gasket is encircled by a mechanical clamping device for sealing the gasket against the exterior of the pipe section. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20090284005 | Composite polymeric transition pipe fitting for joining polymeric and metallic pipes - A pipe fitting includes a main polymeric body and a secondary polymeric body, of a different polymeric material, molded into and fixedly connected to the main body, so that the main body extends around the polymeric body. The secondary polymeric body extends around and is contiguous with a passageway of the pipe fitting, and at least partially defines a first opening of the passageway that is for being mated to a polymeric pipe. The main body extends around and is contiguous with the passageway, and at least partially defines a second opening of the passageway that is for being mated to a metallic pipe. | 11-19-2009 |
