ABSTRACT:
A pipe tool for assembling the spigot end of a first pipe into the hub or bell of the second pipe. A bracket configured to seat on the pipe pivotally carries a semi-circular yoke. An actuating handle is secured to the yoke. A collar member is axially displaced from the yoke and is secured to the yoke by a crank arrangement. The collar and the bracket members are adapted to be placed on adjacent pipe sections with one of the members in abutment with the hub and the other with the annular seal at the spigot end. Rotation of the yoke through the actuating handle exerts an axial force at the collar urging the pipe sections into sealing engagement.
