Abstract
An apparatus includes a telescopic double tubular member accommodated in an outer case that is mounted so as to surround an outer circumferential surface of a water pipe, and placed between a pair of cut faces. The double tubular member includes an anti-corrosion member that faces the pair of cut faces and a core member, and is configured such that the anti-corrosion member is radially expanded by the core member, so as to be pressed against the pair of cut faces. The anti-corrosion member has a through hole that communicates with the water pipe, and a flange positioned above the through hole and extending radially outward. The flange has an abutment surface that abuts an outer circumferential surface of the water pipe, and this abutment surface is curved along the outer circumferential surface of the water pipe.
