ABSTRACT:
A mechanical pipe joint is disclosed in which a pin formed on the end of one pipe section is inserted in a socket formed in the end of another pipe section. The tapered section on the pin has a taper angle less than the taper angle of the tapered section on the socket. When the pin is inserted to the desired depth, an annular cavity will be formed between the tapered section in which sealant is trapped to form an annular seal for the joint.
