LKA10 Rubber Expansion joints for Thermal Expansion Elimination
Rubber Expansion joints are used in various areas such as:
Mechanical installation and machine engineering.
Domestic water and liquid industry.
Shipbuilding and marine engineering.
Power plants and nuclear stations.
HVAC applications.
Movement Absorption
To compensate thermal expansion and compression.
To reduce tension in the pipelines.
To prevent noise and vibration to protect the connected systems.
To compensate for ground, and settlement of especially the new buildings.
To provide proper sealing with their elastic structures where the pipelines pass through walls.
Advantages
Rubber expansion joints provide excellent compensating features by their highly rated rubber bellows which is consisted of special synthetic rubber, steel wire and nylon braid fibre.
They may be produced with flange and threaded connections.
They may have two bellowed structure in order to absorb large movements.
Rubber expansion joints are designed to compensate axial, lateral, angular and transverse movements at the same time.
