A segmented coupling for use in sealing adjacent pipe ends includes coupling segments having bolting pads at their ends, the ends of the coupling segments including inclined end faces for cooperation with correspondingly inclined end faces of an adjacent coupling segment to produce self-adjustment of the coupling and rigid clamping of the pipe ends upon tightening down of the coupling.

Self-adjusting pipe clamp and coupling

A pressure gauge for use with a corrosive fluid containing a sulfide which includes a Bourdon tube made from stainless steel type 316 and having a first or outer hardened layer and a second or inner layer having a hardness equal to or less than Rc22. The Bourdon tube is welded to a socket and to a closure member using stainless steel type 316 such that the weld seals the interface between the first and second layers to isolate the hardened outer layer from the corrosive fluid.
