ABSTRACT:
A pipe coupling for releasably securing pipe in end to end relation uses controlled wedging action of contractile rings positioned between the coupling and the ends of the pipes. The pipes are disengagable from the coupling by manually moving the pipes inwardly of the coupling and then inserting a thin half circular sleeve tool between the pipes and the contractile rings so as to reposition the contractile rings away from the pipes.
