Abstract: A fitting for encasing an extended length of pipe comprising a plurality of segments jointed end-to-end to axially extend over the length of pipe, each of the segments being formed by a pair of mating semi-cylindrical sections, the pairs of mating sections having arcuate ends forming longitudinally extending opposed faces mating at a diametral plane, the longitudinal opposed faces being sealed together, the adjacent axial ends of the segments being circumferentially sealed together, ends of the fitting having internal seals arranged to contact and seal onto the exterior of the pipe whereby the space between said internal seals within said fitting is closed.
