The expansion joint weights more than 1,700 lbs. and is capable of +/- 1/4 axial movement and +/- 1/8 lateral movement. It is designed to operate under-designed pressures ranging from full vacuum to 15 psig at 250 degrees. The bellows and liner of the expansion joint are made of 304 stainless steel with a carbon steel flange and duct. To ensure quality, the product was 100% dye-penetrant tested prior to shipping.
