Abstract
A connection between a tubing and a container, for example a blood bag and donor tubing, may be made even if dissimilar materials are utilized which are incompatible for heat sealing together. A pair of inner and outer tapered, telescoping sleeve members retain between them a flexible tubing segment. The sleeve members carry a flange which is of a material adapted for sealing to said container. The tubing segment defines a different material which is less sealingly compatible with said container, and is adapted to be sealed at its outer end to the telescopically connected tubing which may comprise the donor tube of a blood bag or the like.
