ABSTRACT:
A snap-on device for butt connecting in fluidtight manner one or more pairs of pipes, in particular vehicle fuel supply pipes. The device consists of a cup-shaped body having at least a first integral pipe connected hydraulically to a seat inside the body; and a block connectable inside the seat and molded on at least a second pipe, so that the end of the second pipe projects frontwards of the block in the insertion direction of the block inside the seat. The seat presents a recess coaxial with the first pipe and designed to receive the projecting end of the second pipe in sliding and fluidtight manner; and releasable locking structure for locking the block inside the seat, while at the same time permitting axial movement of the block and the projecting end of the second pipe inside the seat and recess respectively.
