Fabric Expansion Joints

Product Details:

A hinged expansion joint is a type of metallic expansion joint designed to allow angular movement in a single plane while restricting axial and lateral movements. It consists of a bellows element with hinge mechanisms attached to its ends, which help control movement and absorb thermal expansion in piping systems.

1. Restricts Axial Movement: The hinge mechanism prevents axial displacement, making it ideal for applications where controlled angular movement is required.
2. Allows Angular Rotation: Designed to accommodate angular deflection in a single plane.
3. Absorbs Thermal Expansion: Used in piping systems to absorb thermal expansion by allowing controlled movement.
4. Hinge Mechanism: Typically consists of two hinge plates connected by a pin, ensuring stability and controlled movement.
5. Material Options: Available in stainless steel, Inconel, and other high-temperature resistant materials depending on application needs.

Product Details:

Fabric bellows are flexible protective covers made from high-temperature, abrasion-resistant, and chemically resistant fabrics. They are widely used in various industries for multiple applications, including:

• Expansion Joints: Used in ducting systems to absorb thermal expansion, vibrations, and misalignments.
• Dust & Fume Extraction: Installed in exhaust systems to contain and direct dust, fumes, and gases.
• Piping & Ducting Systems: Protect against temperature variations and movements.

• CNC Machines & Robotics: Prevent dust, chips, and debris from damaging machine components like lead screws and guideways.
• Laser Cutting Machines: Shield sensitive laser parts from sparks and dust.
• Hydraulic & Pneumatic Cylinders: Protect cylinder rods from contamination and damage.

• Railways & Metros: Used in gangway connections to allow flexibility and protect against environmental elements.
• Automobile Industry: Found in steering and suspension systems to shield joints and moving parts.

• Aircraft Components: Protect hydraulic and mechanical systems from dust, moisture, and debris.
• Military Vehicles & Equipment: Used in harsh environments to safeguard moving parts.

• Medical Equipment: Used in hospital beds and scanning machines for smooth movement and protection.
• Cleanrooms: Prevent contamination by sealing off critical areas.

• Furnace & Boiler Systems: Made from heat-resistant materials like silicone-coated fiberglass to withstand high temperatures.
• Power Plants & Refineries: Installed in ducts and exhaust systems to handle extreme heat and pressure variations.

Product Details:

Square expansion joints are used in various industrial applications to accommodate thermal expansion, vibration, and misalignment in ducting and piping systems. Their primary uses include:

• HVAC systems
• Power plants (flue gas ducts, air intake systems)
• Cement plants (kiln and preheater ducts)
• Steel plants (exhaust and fume ducts)

• Low-pressure gas or liquid pipelines
• Exhaust gas piping in marine and industrial applications
• Cooling water systems

• Boiler and furnace ducting
• Chemical processing plants
