Expansion joints

Expansion joints are used as flexible pipe sections. The expansion joints are mainly used to countervail:

- thermal expansion
- soil subsidence
- vibration

By applying a compensator, the piping and equipment connected will be relieved. This reduces tension (stress) on the relevant sections of the list. The productlife of the pipes and equipment will thus be increased.

Through the use of expansion joints you can be built much more compact, resulting in less pipe length (less pressure loss) and less space is required (lower house).

There are four basic materials of which expansion joints are manufactured: 

Stenflex rubber_expansion joint Stainless steel expansion joint PFTE expansion joint fabric expansion joint

Rubber

Stainless steel

PTFE

Fabric

Based on the application, the medium, temperature and pressure one of the models above can be chosen. We can make this selection for you. Thanks to our very wide range comprehensive package, we can always offer you the most optimal shape.
