  • Patent number: 12650184
    Abstract: The invention relates to a fitting for creating a fluid-tight screw connection for a pipe having an external thread, with a fitting base body, with a pressing sleeve connected to the fitting base body, with a chamber formed in the pressing sleeve, with an elastomer seal arranged in the chamber and with a plastic seal arranged in the pressing sleeve. The elastomer seal consists of a material with an elasticity which is greater than the elasticity of the material of the plastic seal, and wherein the plastic seal is in contact with the elastomer seal on the outside and has a thread on the inside for screwing onto the external thread of the tube.

  • Patent number: 12607282
    Abstract: The invention relates to a pipe connector for tightly connecting a first pipe end to a second pipe end, with a sleeve-like base body which has a first receptacle for inserting a first pipe end and a second receptacle for inserting a second pipe end, with first retaining elements in the area of the first receptacle, which are designed to fixate a first pipe end inserted into the first receptacle in the first receptacle after the pipe connector has been pressed, and with second retaining elements in the area of the second receptacle, which are designed to fixate a second pipe end inserted into the first receptacle after the pipe connector has been pressed, wherein the base body is formed from a plurality of base body segments arranged next to one another in the circumferential direction. The invention further relates to a use of the pipe connector and to a method for tightly connecting a first pipe end to a second pipe end.
