ABSTRACT:
A flexible gas tight pipe coupling has interengaging pipe sections, an end portion of one of which is expanded to form a spheroidal barrel, and an end portion of the other of which is inserted in the barrel and itself expanded to form a spheroidal barrel loosely trapped within the first barrel. A bellows and a protective tubular braid are secured to the pipe sections to provide a gas tight cover over the coupling.
