Abstract
A corrosion-resistant pipe coupling made of carbon steel has on its inner surface an intermediate annular projection directed radially inward. At least an innermost part of the annular projection is formed or corrosion-resistant material such as stainless steel. The annular projection is covered by a corrosion-resistant annular member or which is secured by friction welding, electron beam welding, an adhesive or mechanical engagement. The annular member prevents corrosion of the coupling by corrosive fluids flowing in pipes.
