The ring members being adapted to interlock together to compress the portion of the sleeve therebetween into sealing relation with a sheet material also located between the ring members.
Claims13
A device for flashing about a pipe or conduit passing through a roof or wall,
- a first member having an aperture therethrough for a pipe or conduit to pass through and a continuous first abutment surface extending about said aperture, a second member having an aperture therethrough for the pipe or conduit to pass through and a continuous second abutment surface extending about said aperture, said apertures and abutment surfaces being arranged so that when the first and second members are assembled to a pipe or conduit that extends through the respective apertures, the first and second abutment surfaces are in an opposing face to face substantially parallel relation substantially transverse to the axis of the pipe or conduit, means to secure the first and second members together in said assembled relation with a sheet of flexible material therebetween and through which the pipe or conduit also extends and a sleeve of flexible resilient material adapted at one end for attachment to the first member so that a pipe or conduit extending through the first and second members also extends through the sleeve, the other end of the sleeve being adapted to sealably engage the external surface of the pipe or conduit extending therethrough, said one end of the sleeve including a portion located in use to be compressed between the sheet and one of the members when the first and second members are secured together in said assembled relation.
