b. Jubilee pipe patch. The jubilee pipe patch is a modification of a commercial hose clamp. FIGURE 8-5 illustrates

examples of the application of the jubilee pipe patch.

This patch consists of a piece of sheet metal which is rolled into a cylinder and so shaped at the gap that the two ends

are really flanges. These flanges can be reinforced by welding on strips of scrap iron, after which the two flanges are

drilled to take from three to five bolts. It is advisable to weld small braces from the flange to the back of the patch to

keep the flange faces more or less parallel under pressure.
