ABSTRACT:
An adjustable flange comprises a circular collar portion having a base. The collar defines first and second openings therethrough. A gasket extends from the base and defines an opening coextensive with the first opening. The gasket is sized to fit around the circumference of a pipe. An adjusting means has a first portion for encircling the gasket for applying compressive forces thereto and a second portion extending along the gasket and through the second opening. The first and second portions cooperate such that upon rotation of the second portion, the forces applied by the first portion are varied.
