The clamp comprises arcuate clamp sections, typically two semi-circular sections, which are assembled end to end to form a clamp ring about the flanges at the site of the leak. Each clamp section has an inner surface with spaced edges, and a seal tube of deformable metal is attached to each of the clamp sections at each of the edges, with the metal tube having a folded wall with ridges and troughs.
