Abstract
In a pipe joint, a spigot is inserted into a socket; a lock ring is accommodated in a lock ring-accommodating groove formed in the inner circumference of the socket; and an engaging part formed in the outer circumference of the spigot, wherein the engaging part engages with the lock ring from a back side of the socket in a separation direction A of the spigot, thereby preventing the spigot from separating from the socket. The engaging part is formed at a position receding from a distal end of the spigot in the separation direction A of the spigot. A bending suppressing member for restricting the socket and the spigot in a bending direction C is provided between the inner circumference of the socket and the outer circumference of the spigot in the range between the distal end of the spigot and the engaging part.
