Expansion Joint - HIGH TEMPERATURE FLUE DUCT JOINTS (Fabric) Available in "U", belt, square, round or rectangular configurations. More movement in a shorter space than metal joints. Less reaction force for pipe movement. No vibration fatigue or high cycling failure. Light weight and easy to install. A wide range of composite materials available to meet temperature and corrosion resistance requirements. Temperature capabilities to 2000Ί F. Baffle and insulation pillow designs available. Service Features of Fabric Expansion Joints: Absorb axial, transverse and torsional movements Corrosion and chemical resistance Negligible spring rates and loads Easily repairable and installable High cycle life Unique application solutions Vibration dampening and sound attenuation More movement in shorter face-to-face Less force to flex than metal expansion joints Excellent corrosion and chemical resistance Temperature capability range (-110°F to more than 2,000°F) Lower shipping and installation costs Variety of flexible belt materials available: Single-layer and composite belts Elastomers have excellent abrasion resistance Custom designed for each specific application Design Considerations Media: Internal and External Environment Temperature: Constant operating and maximum excursion Pressure: Normal positive or negative Movements: Axial and lateral, simultaneously or independently Installation: Existing equipment and duct flanges Assembly: Factory-assembled or field-spliced Baffles Baffles are usually not necessary with elastomeric expansion joints due to the tube resistance to most abrasive particular matter. However, baffles must be used with fabric composite joints to protect the inner surface form particulates in the gas stream. We can supply baffles fabricated from carbon steel, stainless steel, or other materials as required. Retaining Rings Standard construction calls for 2" wide, 3/8" thick bars with slotted holes for easy installation. Material of construction can be carbon steel, corten or stainless steel. Availability U-type Belt type Square Rectangular or round No size restriction Choice of FF dimension, depending on movements Associated Metal Work: Backup bars, frames, flanges and baffles Additional Info: http://www.global-hose.com/expansion-joints-metal-hoses |
