PTFE Expansion Joint
The PTFE expansion joint combines the properties of metal and fluoroplastics into the most advanced, versatile expansion joint on the market today. this product was designed to meet the process piping needs of the high-technology, chemical/petrochemical, power generation, pulp and paper, and other demanding needs. This expansion joint is versatile and will:
- Absorb pipe movements and stress
- Isolate mechanical vibration
- Reduce system noise
- Protect against surge forces
it is a problem solving product in many high temperature applications.
The construction of the PTFE expansion joint ellows in combination with a PTFE lining formed into the bellows during manufacture. PTFE expansion joints can offer working temperatures from -300°F to +400°F, and a choice of bellows rated for working pressures of 50, 150, or 300 psi. Gimbal, hinged, dual externally pressurized, and pressure balanced styles are construction options. Flanges are available in carbon steel, stainless steel, or Teflon coated.
