Abstract

A push-together pipe assembly is disclosed for joining two pipe ends. One pipe end has a specially contoured exterior surface. The other pipe end has a mating specially contoured interior surface. Each of the contoured surfaces is made up of a series of alternating helical spline wedges. The wedges are oppositely tapered from an inner extent to an outer extent thereof, whereby the helical spline wedges form an alternating series of lands and grooves as viewed from the respective mouth openings. The two opposing pipe ends mate and engage as one pipe end is pushed toward the other during assembly, causing a slight rotation of one pipe relative to the other.
