US Bellows custom-designed and manufactured this 153″ x 55″ x 21″ fabric expansion joint for an exhaust application at a gas turbine facility overseas. The expansion joint features a carbon steel frame and liner with a protective painted finish. The flexible element consists of a reinforced neoprene fabric belt designed to accommodate system movement while maintaining reliable performance under demanding operating conditions.
The assembly was engineered for a pressure rating of ±100″ water column and operating temperatures ranging from -20°F to 600°F. Prior to shipment, the expansion joint underwent a 100% dye-penetrant examination and paint thickness inspection to verify compliance with project quality requirements.
US Bellows specializes in the design and manufacture of custom fabric expansion joints for gas turbine exhaust systems, power generation facilities, industrial ducting, and other applications requiring flexibility, vibration isolation, and thermal expansion compensation.
