Abstract: A venting system includes a vent for expelling gases that accumulate between a metal pipe and a plastic liner disposed within the metal pipe. The vent includes a base portion that is configured to be disposed between the plastic liner and a wall of the metal pipe. The base portion has at least one channel extending along the base portion to a central region of the base portion. The vent includes an exhaust portion that protrudes from the central region of the base portion and is adapted to extend through the wall of the metal pipe. The exhaust portion has a central passage that interconnects with the at least one channel of the base portion, such that the vent is configured to vent gases from an interface area between the plastic liner and the wall of the metal pipe to an exterior atmosphere outside the metal pipe.
