ABSTRACT:
An expandable connector to axially join tubular elements. The connector consists of two confronting hollow parts dimensioned to fit into the ends of axially aligned tubular elements. The parts define together a void having an inflatable elastic casing. The casing is pressurized when the tubular elements are in alignment and the hollow parts are in connecting relationship therein. The parts are thereby driven internally against the end portion of the tubular elements in wedge-like manner.
