ABSTRACT:
A clamping system for connecting two tubes (20, 22) together in leaktight manner, the facing ends of the tubes having bearing surfaces (16, 18) that project relative to the cylindrical outside surfaces of said tubes. The system comprises a collar (10) and a washer (28). The collar has a band (12) suitable for co-operating with bearing surfaces via its inside periphery defining a setback, and a bolt (24) and a nut (26) arrangement for tightening the band (12). The washer is secured to the collar (10) by fixing tabs (32, 34, 36).
