The core portion, which has a core portion internal surface and a core portion external surface, has and at least two pipe engaging portions that are separated by at least one flexible portion, which has a flexible portion internal surface and a flexible portion external surface, and a plurality of joint cover portions. Each joint cover portion extends from the core portion external surface of the core portion to provide a protective cover for the flexible portion external surface of at least one flexible portion of the core portion and is pivotably connected to a least one joint shield portion. The or each joint shield portion is configured to provide a protective shield for at least one flexible portion of the core portion. The core portion and the or each joint shield portion are formed as a single unitary component.
