A clamp or connector (10) for gripping an elongate member e.g. pipes (11,12) has a housing (14, 14a) engageable with cir- cumferentially discontinuous angularly expansible and contractible gripping elements (24) which engage inclined surfaces (18) and a deformable seal (22) engaging a distance piece (19). Tightening of nuts (32) increases the grip. When gripping a non-circu- lar pipe the element (24) can move axially as at (29). The clamp can grip an internal circumference and can adjust to accommo- date a degree of ovality of the pipe.
