ABSTRACT:
A threadless coupling for coupling a pipe to a support member or for coupling two or more sections of pipe together is provided. The coupling comprises an outer sleeve or housing and a plurality of substantially identical pipe end receiving and retaining fasteners received and retained within a bore, or bores, in the outer sleeve or housing. The fasteners may be utilized in variable numbers to provide selectively variable degrees of tensile retention of the pipe to the coupling. The fasteners are serrated to better grip the lengths of pipe and to compensate for the out-of-round conditions often found on the exterior surfaces of pipe.
