ABSTRACT:
Plastic pad at center of concave bevel of each semicircular segment maintains lateral and axial alignment when segments spread apart by pipe. In another special configuration, inside and outside segments are offset semicircles, with a greater dimension across opposed edges when abutting than middle. Inside threads of segments relieved at edges, with full threads at center and progressive decrease to each edge. Segments have cone portions opposite bevel, for engagement with concave seat of housing to tighten threads. Ring rotatable relative to housing but axially fixed has convex cone spaced from seat and engaged by bevel of segments for spreading. Resilient ring in peripheral groove of segments. Outside notches at segment edges receive housing pin or ring, to prevent relative rotation and restrain lateral play at abutting edges. Numerous variations of construction disclosed.
