Penetration fitting having compression seals and methods of installing and using the same
A penetration fitting assembly includes a pipe gasket having an annular portion defining a central opening and first and second stem portions extending in opposite directions from the annular portion, an inner ring assembly configured to surround the pipe gasket and including first and second inner ring halves, a ring gasket assembly configured to surround the inner ring assembly and including first and second ring gasket halves, a wall gasket, an outer ring assembly configured to surround the ring gasket assembly and including first and second outer ring halves, and a clamp configured to surround the outer ring assembly. When the penetration fitting assembly is installed, the outer ring assembly compresses the wall gasket against the wall of the sump, the clamp compresses the ring gasket assembly between the inner ring assembly and the outer ring assembly, and the clamp compresses the pipe gasket against the pipe or conduit.

Pipe fitting mount
A pipe adapter with two or more plugs, each plug is inserted into an opening in a different pipe fitting. The adapter permanently isolates the fittings from each other, while keeping the fittings a fixed distance apart.
Grommet
Provided is a grommet that can improve the water-blocking property. A grommet includes an opposing portion 32 that opposes a portion surrounding a mounting hole 12 in a vehicle body panel 11, a first water-blocking portion 33 that extends from the opposing portion 32 and comes in contact with the vehicle body panel 11, and a second water-blocking portion 34 that extends from the opposing portion 32 and comes in contact with the vehicle body panel 11. Each of the first water-blocking portion 33 and the second water-blocking portion 34 is formed in an annular shape that surrounds the mounting hole 12. The second water-blocking portion 34 is provided on the outer circumferential side with respect to the first water-blocking portion 33.

Pipe trim assembly
A pipe trim assembly for trimming a pipe extending through a wall includes a panel that has a pipe opening extending through the panel for having a pipe extending therethrough. The panel has a plurality of connection openings each extending through the panel. Fasteners can be extended through the connection openings for fastening the panel to an exterior wall of a building through which the pipe extends. A gasket is coupled to the panel and the gasket extends around the pipe opening. Moreover, the gasket surrounds the pipe when the pipe is extended through the pipe opening. A frame is removably attachable to the panel such that the frame covers the plurality of connection openings in the panel to enhance the appearance of the panel.

Apparatus for sealing pipes and plumbing fittings and fixtures
An apparatus for sealing a hole or a shape in a surface, which, in an exemplary embodiment, may take the form of a sheet of a soft material containing an interior hole, an exterior surface, a top lip, and an outer area. It may likewise be contemplated for the sealing apparatus to feature a bottom lip. Part of the apparatus may be roughened or have a rough surface attached thereto, which may be imprinted into the interior portion of the body and the exterior portion of the body and the top lip, or both. An adhesive pipe sealant may be used along the rough surface and bonded to the increased surface area of the roughened region.

Riser ring system and method of use
A system for and a method of preventing a conduit, pipe, or other similar traversing piece of equipment, from falling through an opening, and for facilitating ready adjustment of the traversing piece of equipment during installation, maintenance, and/or repair services. A first embodiment may involve a single-component system or a multi-component system. A second embodiment may involve a multi-component system for and method of effectively increasing the diameter of a conduit or pipe to an amount greater than that of an opening, but in a way such that the conduit or pipe can be adjustably extended without need for disengaging the system or back-tracking/reversing the method. A third embodiment may involve an annular riser ring and method of use thereof, wherein the riser ring is configured to slide over a conduit or pipe and is held in place along the pipe or conduit by a tight but slidable friction fit.
