Abstract
A threadless pipe fitting of the 'stab-in' type wherein a fluid tight connection between a cylindrical conduit and fitting is achieved merely by inserting the fitting upon the conduit end. An annular elastomeric seal within a groove defined in the fitting conduit receiving bore engages the conduit outer surface in a combination compression and lip seal manner wherein both elastomeric compression forces and fluid pressure forces maintain a sealing engagement between the seal and conduit. Additionally, set screw means radially threaded into the fitting mechanically maintain the conduit and fitting assembly, and the set screw includes torque limiting means for preventing excessive radial forces, and the nose of the set screw means is shaped to provide maximum frictional engagement with the conduit with minimal radial force.
