Rubber pipe expansion joints are often used to compensate for minor misalignment and offset. The design is chemical and abrasion resistant, accommodates for higher pressures than the standard metal expansion joints, and eliminates sediment buildup. They feature an integrally flanged design that eliminates the need for gaskets and are engineered to absorb noise, vibration, and shock, enhancing system reliability and performance.. This single, wide arch, spool-type rubber expansion joint is provided with either Stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized retaining rings. View Rubber / Fabric Expansion Joints Product Section.
These neoprene expansion joints were custom-designed for water cooling loops at a chemical plant in Louisiana. They have a neoprene twin sphere rubber tubing with 304 stainless steel flanges and covers. US Bellows fabricated five of each of the following dimensions: 3×10, 6×10, 8×12, and 10×14. They were designed for an operating temperature of 225°F at 225 PSIG and 1-3/8″ – 1-3/4″ of lateral offset. The units were hydro-tested and PMI on all rubber joint root-rings prior to shipment.
Besides chemical plants, other plants that utilize rubber expansion joints are air scrubber systems, sewage treatment, wastewater treatment, and water treatment plants. Combined cycle power plants also often utilize rubber spool-type expansion joints.
