A pipe clamp for affixing to a pipe subjected to bending to minimize fatigue for a butt weld in the pipe. The pipe clamp includes an inside clamp segment and an outside clamp segment each having a semi-cylindrical shape, a first end and a second end. An inside surface of the inside clamp segment is substantially smooth for permitting slippage of an outside surface of the pipe with respect to the inside surface of the clamp segment. The outside clamp segment has an inside surface that defines a friction element. The friction element is for gripping an outside surface of the pipe to which the outside clamp segment is affixed. A clamp mechanism is provided for securing the inside clamp segment to the outside clamp segment.

A hose assembly includes a metal hose, an end connection having a distal end defining a fluid connector and a proximal end defining a tube stub received in a distal end portion of the hose, and a weld collar surrounding the distal end portion of the hose and the tube stub of the end connection, with the weld collar, the hose distal end portion, and the tube stub being welded together at a welding zone proximal to a distal edge of the metal hose.

A hose conducts high-temperature steam combined with cleaning solution in a cleaning operation. The hose comprises an external liner, an intermediate conduit, and an internal liner. The external liner comprises first braiding and is disposed along a longitudinal length of the hose. The intermediate conduit is disposed in the external liner along the longitudinal length of the hose. The intermediate conduit has a plurality of corrugations disposed laterally in the tubular wall of the intermediate conduit. The internal liner comprises second braiding and is disposed in the intermediate conduit along the longitudinal length of the hose. The internal liner provided a full bore for the hose configured to conduct the high temperature steam combined with the cleaning solution in a volatilized mixture.

A connection device for plastic pipe elements (1) which allows performing pre-assembly and being finally assembled without requiring skilled labor, having a pipe element (1) with at least one end, a plastic connection element (2) which is connected to an outer surface of the pipe element (1) through the end, which has a resistance wire (3) wound on the outer surface of the pipe element (1) itself.

A tube assembly for a gas turbine engine includes a rigid tube having first and second ends for connection to first port and second ports on the gas turbine engine. The first and second ports have different orientations providing for different installation vectors. The tube assembly further includes a tube adapter adjustably connected to the second port and a coupling, which, is, in turn, adjustably mounted to a distal end of the tube adapter for connection with the second end of the tube.

An assembly includes at least one member having first and second ends. A dual metal adapter for connecting to the at least one member includes an inner tube for receiving and contacting the first end of the at least one member and being formed from a first metal having a first resistivity. An outer tube extends over the inner tube and is secured thereto. The outer tube is formed from a second metal having a second resistivity greater than the first resistivity. The first end of the at least one member is metallurgically bonded to the inner tube.

A welded connection kit for joining first and second lined pipes together includes a coupling sleeve to connect the first and second pipes together. The coupling sleeve has a thermal break in it. The coupling sleeve includes a first coupling member that attaches to the first pipe and a second coupling member that attaches to the second pipe. The first and second coupling members attach to each other to connect the first and second pipes. A first liner lines the first pipe and includes a first flange. A second liner lines the second pipe and includes a second flange. The first and second coupling members compress the first and second flanges together to form a fluid seal.
