Abstract: A pipe fitting for encompassing a conduit comprising a pair of interlocking segments with each segment comprising an arcuate configuration having at least two longitudinal edges with one edge of each segment comprising a tongue split longitudinally thereof in a direction substantially perpendicular to its length. The other of the edges comprising a groove conforming to and receiving the tongue formed on the juxtapositioned edge of the other of the segments. The tongue when forced into the opening in the groove in the other of the segments causing its two parts to engage each other along the length of the slot and when in the groove to again separate causing the tongue to interlock with the periphery of the groove thereby interlocking the segments of the pipe fitting together.
