ABSTRACT:
A coupling ring for circular ducts is formed of a single piece of sheet metal and has oppositely extending flanges connected together by an annular channel-shaped rib which cooperatively with the flanges defines oppositely opening grooves containing sealant. The relative dimensions of the grooves is such that a hydraulic lock is avoided at the time the coupling ring is telescoped onto the ducts. Proper sealing can be visually determined by inspection.
