Abstract: A gasket bridge assembly includes a gasket bridge defining a first circumferential bridge end, a second circumferential bridge end opposite the first circumferential bridge end, and an arcuate body arcing between the first and second circumferential bridge ends, wherein the gasket bridge comprises: a first anti-slip feature at the first circumferential bridge end; a second anti-slip feature at the second circumferential bridge end; and a third anti-slip feature disposed between the first and second circumferential bridge ends; and a gasket assembly disposed radially inward of the gasket bridge, wherein each of the first, second, and third anti-slip features extend radially inward and dig into an outer sealing surface of the gasket assembly to prevent movement of the gasket assembly relative to the gasket bridge.

Abstract: An end ring assembly includes a split ring defining an outer ring surface, an inner ring surface, a first ring end and a second ring end, the first ring end and second ring end defining a gap therebetween; a gasket bridge defining an outer bridge surface, an inner bridge surface, the gasket bridge further defining a first bridge end, a second bridge end, and a middle portion therebetween, the middle portion of the gasket bridge extending between the first ring end and the second ring end, the first bridge end and second bridge end engaging the inner ring surface, a first ramp extending from the first bridge end; and a primary gasket defining a primary outer sealing surface and a primary inner sealing surface, the primary outer sealing surface engaging the inner ring surface and the inner bridge surface.

Abstract: A pipe coupling includes a coupling body defining a first body end; and an end ring assembly comprising: a split ring a gap defined between a first ring end of the split ring and a second ring end of the split ring; a gasket bridge extending across the gap between the first ring end and the second ring end; and a gasket assembly disposed radially inward of the split ring and the gasket bridge, the gasket assembly compressed between the split ring and the first body end.

Abstract: Example aspects of a gasket bridge for an end ring assembly and a method for using an end ring assembly are disclosed. The gasket bridge can comprise an arcuate body defining an inner surface, an outer surface, a first bridge end, and a second bridge end, the arcuate body defining a bridge radius of curvature; a first ramp extending from the first bridge end; a second ramp extending from the second bridge end; and a projection extending from the inner surface.
