We used something similar in this job I once had. We usually referred to them as "collar" or "clamp". In our procedures it was refered to as "clamping collar" to make it as little ambiguous as possible.
It was nicknamed "Dachs armor" as it was about the same length as the belly of a dachs hound, and roughly about the same diameter.
