[0002] Composite pipes are pipes based on a composite structure of metal and thermoplastic plastics, and are formed by lining with polypropylene, polyethylene or externally welding cross-linked polyethylene and other non-metallic materials. When two sections of composite pipes are connected to each other, a clamp joint is usually used for connection, and the clamp joint realizes the connection in the form of biting two sections of composite pipes. However, after the clamp joint is connected to the pipe fittings, a sealing test and an airtightness test are generally carried out. Because the surface between the clamp joint and the composite pipe is mainly sealed by a sealing gasket, there is a certain probability that there will be a certain amount of gap at the connection position between the pipe fittings and the joint after installation, and the appearance of the gap is mainly due to the insufficient sealing performance of the joint.
