Expansion Joints to compensate for movements in pipes and ducts
Criterias for choosing the right type of expansion joint
Expansion joints are vital components in most industrial plants. They are installed as flexible connections in duct and pipe systems to compensate for the inevitable thermal expansion, vibrations, and minor misalignments.
