Abstract
A leak repair clamp for pipe and pipe flanges includes a frame having a plurality of one piece frame segments positionable in end-to-end relationship around the pipe. Each segment includes a pair of spaced apart metal lips which are adapted to form a metal-to-metal seal with a pipe or flanges when the frame segments are connected together. Access means are provided in each frame segment to permit the passes of liquid sealant into the recess defined by the lips and the pipe.
