5100 / Axial Expansion Joint

Features

• FAF Axial Expansion Bellows have been designed to control vibration, reduce noise, relieve stress, prevent system shock and compensate for misalignment and movement.
• Absorbs dimensions differences and vibrations occurs due to thermal differences.
• With the liner optiton, it prevents the errosion on the bellows that could occur at high flow velocities with vibration and obrasion.
• Use of braided metal connectors for applications such as pumps, compressors, and other mechanical equipment will enhance the overall operation of the system.
• Allows balancing of the pipeline lateral and angular movements.
• Provides easy installation due to rotary flanges.
• Dampens mechanical vibrations and reduce sound conducted through solids on pumps and compressors.
• Compensates for thermal movements and vibrations in flue gas ducts of boilers and engines.
• As assembly aids for pumps, fittings and plate heat exchangers.
• Expansion joints are used in lots of applications, where it concerns safety, health, environment, durability and lifetime. Bellows are made from stainless steel strip which is first welded to a thin walled tube and formed to a bellow afterwards.
• It can be manufactured as rotary flanges (FAF5110), Welding Ends (FAF5120), Fixed Flanges (FAF5130).
• Stock piled for quick delivery.
