EXTENDED RANGE ENCAPSULATION SHELL
A conduit coupling assembly having first and second sleeve members configured to be tightened to a fluid conduit, an arcuate radial split gasket configured to be positioned between the first and second sleeve members and the fluid conduit, the first sleeve member having an inwardly-facing arcuate radial surface with first and second arcuate portions and a third arcuate portion between the first and second arcuate portions that has a radius from the longitudinal axis of the pipe that is less than the radius of the first and second arcuate portions, and the second sleeve member having an inwardly-facing arcuate radial surface with first and second arcuate portions and a third arcuate portion between the first and second arcuate portions that has a radius from the longitudinal axis of the pipe that is less than the radius of the first and second arcuate portions.
Pipe Repair Clamp Sealing Assembly
A pipe repair clamp includes a clamp body which defines a central opening into which a pipe is received. Gaskets are located within the clamp body which seal against the pipe on either side of a leak. The gaskets are provided with fiber shield reinforcement to prevent extrusion of the gaskets.

Tube leak repair clamp sealing apparatus for use in a nuclear power plant
A clamp sealing apparatus configured for preventing leakage from a defective region of a tube is provided. The clamp sealing apparatus includes a first clamping section and second clamping section tangentially connected to each other; and a seal held by the first and second clamping sections. Each of the first and second clamping sections includes a segment of a clamp body and a segment of a compression section. The clamp body and the compression section is configured for axially compressing the seal between the clamp body and the compression section such that the seal is pressed radially against an outer diameter surface of the tube onto the defective region by the axial compression to seal the defective region. A method of sealing a defective region of a tube to prevent fluid leakage through the defective region is also provided.
Pipe repair fitting with end seals
A pipe repair fitting (10) includes a pair of opposed generally semi-cylindrical sleeve members (12, 14) including side flanges (16, 18) and first fasteners (20) that engage the side flanges (16, 18) for fastening and encircling the sleeve members (12, 14) together onto a pipe to be repaired. Each sleeve member includes a central longitudinal semi-cylindrical portion (22). A first seal member (26) is disposed in at least one of the longitudinal semi-cylindrical portions (22) for sealing the sleeve members (12, 14) with respect to each other. Semi-annular clamp housings (24, 25) extend from opposite ends of the longitudinal semi-cylindrical portion (22). Ends of the semi-annular clamp housings (24, 25) include opposing clamp members (27). One or more second fasteners (30) tighten the clamp members (27) towards each other so as to apply a clamping force on the pipe to be repaired. At least one end seal (28) is disposed in the semi-annular clamp housings (24, 25).

Repair clamp assembly
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.

Hydraulic Hose Repair Clamp
A hose repair system including a first clamping member and a second clamping member, each clamping member including an interior surface with a concave curve along the width and a pair of longitudinal grooves formed at the intersection of the first and second clamping members. Each longitudinal groove extends from end to end of each clamping member. The system also includes at least one fastener for clamping the first and second clamping members together.
