A flange compression pipe coupling wherein the end portions of the pipes to be coupled are surrounded by an inner jacket consisting of ductile metallic material. The inner jacket is surrounded by a radially deformable outer jacket which is biased against the exterior of the outer jacket by two flanged rings having conical internal surfaces. The outer jacket causes plastic deformation of the inner jacket until the latter sealingly engages the end portions of the pipes whereupon the extent of plastic deformation of the inner jacket remains unchanged.

A coupling for abutting end portions of two at least substantially coaxial pipes, comprising a tubular inner jacket of cylindrical cross section; an outer jacket axially slidable onto said inner jacket and including two parts having respective conical surfaces which converge toward mutually spaced ends of said outer jacket, said parts having slots which extend in parallelism with the axis of the pipes over at least a predominant portion of the lengths, and are uniformly distributed over the peripheries, of said parts of said outer jacket and subdivide the latter into ring segments, and easily deformable webs extending transversely of said slots and interconnecting said ring segments, said outer jacket having a thickness exceeding that of said inner jacket at least at the mutually facing ends of said outer jacket parts; flanged clamping rings shiftable onto said outer jacket and having conical inner surfaces contacting and acting on said conical surfaces of said outer jacket parts; and means for drawing said clamping rings toward one another axially of the pipes to predominantly elastically deform said outer jacket and predominantly plastically deform said inner jacket.
