Abstract
A C-shaped open base element of sheet metal is used to form a protective sleeve about a pipe mounted in a mounting. The element is bent about the pipe and welded together to form the sleeve. Wedges are used to secure the formed sleeve to the pipe. Shoulders are provided on the sleeve to stiffen the sleeve in the unbent regions and to prevent axial displacement of the sleeve in the mounting.
