EXPANSION JOINT
HIGH QUALITY EXPANSION JOINT MANUFACTURER
RB-FLEX EXPANSION JOINT
High quality Expansion joint (sometimes known as compensators) are used in pipeline and ducting systems to compensate for expansion or contraction caused by pressure and temperature.
Pipe expansion joints are necessary in systems that convey high temperature media such as steam or exhaust gases, or to absorb movement and vibration. A typical joint is a bellows of metal (most commonly stainless steel), fabric (such as composite high temperature fabric ) or an elastomer such as rubber. Expansion joints is made up of a flexible part so designed to withstand the internal pressures of the pipe but flexible enough to accept axial, lateral, and angular deflections.
High quality expansion joint manufacturer are used to absorb misalignment and dampen structure-bome noise and vibration. They are also designed for other criteria such as noise absorption, anti-vibration, earthquake movement, and building settlement.
Pipe expansion joints are also known as “compensators”, as they compensate for the thermal movement.
