Abstract
A cylindrical shaped circumferential rib is integrally formed as a base protruding on the outer circumferential surface of a resin pipe. An annular sealant is externally fitted on one end portion of a metal member which is inserted in and fixed to the base to interpose the sealant between the one end portion and the inner circumferential surface of the base, allow the outer circumferential surface of the one end portion to press and restrict the movement of the sealant toward the inner side in the radial direction and toward the trailing end side of the one end portion in the insertion direction, and allow the inner circumferential surface of the base to press and restrict the movement of the sealant toward the outer side in the radial direction and toward the insertion direction distal end side of the one end portion.
