Flanged expansion joint

What are Flanged Expansion Joints The flanged expansion joints are special components required to help tubing or piping move without cracking, cheating and dripping. At first glance they look kind of like doughnuts that have bolts going through them on either side, with a rubber or metal in the middle being somewhat sorta soft and flexible. Flanged expansion joints have several different types that are designed to assist with the symptoms of system needs. This text will explain what a flanged expansion joint is, the principle behind its work, why they are necessary and where do we use them? Demai bellows expansion joints are widely used, mainly in plumbing systems and steam system applications as well as factories using chemicals where they help to connect pipes together. The role of these joints is to prevent pipes or machines from shaking due to pressure changes and movements that can occur in their operation. And that causes pipes to expand when they get hot and contract when cooled. Resulting in pipe stress and possible leaks that will cost you a FORTUNE to repair. When pipes flex or bend, they are subject to damage over time if unrestrained and may burst — flanged expansion joints allow controlled movement allowing them to move without harm, ultimately reducing the likelihood of leaks.

How Flanged Expansion Joints Work to Absorb Movement and Vibration

There are several kinds of flanged expansion joints available. While a couple are constructed from metal, the rest of them come in rubber. There are many different shapes and sizes of technology, and which you need once more hinges on the kind of system in question. With a flanged expansion joint being the most flexible and pressure capable allowing for many different applications because of its range. How Flanged Expansion Joints Works: The flanged expansion joint operates by making up of directly and tearing as the pipe happens to be moved. I like to think of them as rubber bands that temporarily elongate and then quickly snap back into position. Fixed The flanged expansion joint is fixed with the pipe by screws on both ends. That allows the pipe to move, while holding the joint in place with screws. During movement of a pipe the ball joint expands and contracts in its middle, which is manufactured from either metal or rubber. Because of the flexibility this can absorb shaking and so forth which could cause leaks in, or damage to these pipes.
