Abstract: A method of welding a gasket to a spigot portion of a pipe section is described. The method includes supporting the gasket in a recess on the spigot portion of the pipe section. The gasket includes a seating portion and a sealing portion. The sealing portion includes a first shoulder portion and a second shoulder portion. A first bonding portion extends from the first shoulder portion and a second bonding portion extends from the second shoulder portion. The first bonding portion and the second bonding portion are provided to bond the gasket to the spigot portion. The method further includes heating a portion of the gasket and an adjacent surface of the spigot portion and applying a force onto the portion of the gasket following the application of heat to fuse the gasket onto the spigot portion.

Abstract: A corrugation has a radially inner wall circumferentially surrounding an axis. The inner wall defines an inner cavity configured to conduct a liquid axially through the inner cavity. A radially outer wall of the corrugation overlies the inner wall. The outer wall adjoins the inner wall so as to form a closed outer cavity bounded by the inner and outer walls and separated from the inner cavity by the inner wall. The inner wall has at least one opening providing fluid communication between the inner and outer cavities for the corrugation to serve as a reservoir for the liquid.
