ABSTRACT:
A combination valve and flanged connector for connecting a metallic or non-metallic pipe directly to the valve body is disclosed. The flanged valve connector includes a radial flange secured on a longitudinal end of the valve body. Secured to the radial flange is a tubular member for receiving the end section of a pipe to be connected with the valve body. The tubular member has a generally frusto conical end sized to snugly receive a sealing gasket in sealed relationship between the tubular member and the valve body. The tubular member also has a length sufficient to be engaged by a retainer for holding the sealed gasket in place and to also support a follower ring engaging the gasket retainer, the follower ring being provided with a deep, longitudinally extending strengthening flange.
