Patent attributes
A three-way pipe connector set for connecting pipes such as corrugated insulated pipes used for transporting hot water such as in central heating systems. The connector set can accommodate pipes of different diameter, and comprises a mating pair of a lid piece and bottom piece, each having three semi-circular edge portions that mate with the respective corresponding portions in the mating piece to form circular holes, the circular holes having adjacent edge grooves forming circular grooves when the pieces mate. The set includes at least two top hat pieces, each comprising a cylinder portion and a flange portion, the flange portion having an edge groove to fit an O-ring and configured to fit in a circular groove of the connector. Pipe gaskets are provided for each top hat piece that fit around a suitable pipe to form a tight seal between the pipe and connector.
