Abstract:
A metallic pipe connection may comprise a tubular body and a terminal tubular engagement portion configured to be engaged on a pipe and to be fixed thereto by means of plastic deformation of the engagement portion, and a terminal flange on the opposite side of the tubular body with respect to that one provided with the tubular engagement portion. The tubular engagement portion may include an annular seat for a sealing gasket, having a first housing groove for the sealing gasket which may be internally open towards the tubular engagement portion, and at least part of the tubular engagement portion and the annular seat may be plastically deformed such to generate a mechanical seal on the pipe on which the tubular engagement portion is fitted.
