Abstract: An apparatus for handling a tubular member uses a hollow member having a closed end. A portion of the hollow member is inflatable. The hollow member is mounted on a device which moves the hollow member from a position remote from the tubular member to a position in which the hollow member is inserted in the tubular member. The hollow member extends in the tubular member a distance less than one-half the length of the tubular member. A source of fluid is coupled to the hollow member to supply fluid to the hollow member for inflating the inflatable portion thereof. This secures the hollow member to the tubular member so that the hollow member and the tubular member move substantially in unison with one another.
