A hybrid waste tube assembly, comprising: electrically conductive metal tube segments that each have a first radial engagement surface adjacent to an open end portion; tubular, electrically conductive, non-metallic end fittings each having a second radial engagement surface, each end fitting being fixedly connected to the open end portion of a respective one of the tube segments in an overlapping configuration with the second radial engagement surface engaging the first radial engagement surface, wherein each end fitting includes a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, the distal end portion having a radially inwardly extending flange abutting the open end portion of a respective one of the tube segments; electrically conductive contact features, each contact feature being affixed to a respective one of the end fittings and having a conductive contact surface, and wherein each contact feature is an electrically conductive metal ring bonded to the exterior surface of the respective one of the end fittings with a conductive adhesive; a clamping assembly connected to the end fittings on adjacent, axially aligned tube segments and providing an electrically conductive path across the adjacent tube segments and end fittings, the clamping assembly sealably interconnecting the end fittings with adjacent tube segments aligned to contain and allow a flow of material therethrough, the clamping assembly having an electrically conductive bridge spanning across the clamping assembly and engaging the conductive contact surface of each contact feature to define at least a portion of the electrically conductive path across the adjacent tube segments and end fittings; and a plurality of seals, each engaging a respective one of the end fittings and being configured to allow for at least some angular deflection of the end fittings relative to each other. electrically conductive metal tube segments that each have a first radial engagement surface adjacent to an open end portion; tubular, electrically conductive, non-metallic end fittings each having a second radial engagement surface, each end fitting being fixedly connected to the open end portion of a respective one of the tube segments in an overlapping configuration with the second radial engagement surface engaging the first radial engagement surface, wherein each end fitting includes a proximal end portion and a distal end portion, the distal end portion having a radially inwardly extending flange abutting the open end portion of a respective one of the tube segments; electrically conductive contact features, each contact feature being affixed to a respective one of the end fittings and having a conductive contact surface, and wherein each contact feature is an electrically conductive metal ring bonded to the exterior surface of the respective one of the end fittings with a conductive adhesive; a clamping assembly connected to the end fittings on adjacent, axially aligned tube segments and providing an electrically conductive path across the adjacent tube segments and end fittings, the clamping assembly sealably interconnecting the end fittings with adjacent tube segments aligned to contain and allow a flow of material therethrough, the clamping assembly having an electrically conductive bridge spanning across the clamping assembly and engaging the conductive contact surface of each contact feature to define at least a portion of the electrically conductive path across the adjacent tube segments and end fittings; and a plurality of seals, each engaging a respective one of the end fittings and being configured to allow for at least some angular deflection of the end fittings relative to each other.
