July 23, 2012
These expansion joint components were fabricated for a pressure balanced expansion joint in a nuclear power facility in Pennsylvania. They are 46″ square, fabricated from carbon steel duct with Inconel 625 bellows, and 321 stainless steel liner. The design conditions were +/- 0.875″ axial compression, 1,346 lb./in. lateral spring rate and 15 psig at 250°F. All welds were 100% dye penetrant examined and a pneumatic pressure test at 15 psig was conducted prior to shipping.
