Axial Expansion Joints
What are Axial Expansion Joints ?
- Axial Expansion Joint absorb expansion laterally, cause by the thermal difference of the media inside the pipeline. The pipeline system is divided into several part and expansion joint are installed along the pipeline according to calculations of expansion.
- Axial Expansion Joints are designed to absorb axial movements (extension and compression in its longitudinal axial direction). The thermal expansion of a straight pipe line section between two fix points can be absorbed by Axial Expansion Joints with a relatively compact build-in length. This offers a simple and cost-efficient solution in terms of movement compensation.
- Axial Expansion Joints can be equipped with all kinds of connectors, such as welding ends or welded or loose (rotatable) flanges.
- Axial Expansion Joints manufacturers to the highest quality standards in the industry. All expansion joints and bellows are 100% tested either by pneumatic, hydraulic or mass spectrometer.
