Fabric expansion joint wraps are aproduct that allows customers to stockrolls of standard materials with installationand splicing instructions. Customersstandardise on face to face dimensions oftheir expansion joints and stock rolls ofexpansion joint material that meets thesedimensions and satisfies the designconditions. In the event of a failure aclient will remove the old joint and wrapthe new material around the existing frame joining the ends together using thesplicing procedure provided.The material build up of the rolls will varyto suit the design conditions of the gas and the ambient...

Both these materials are manufacturedinto expansion joints using only a singlelayer. The elastomers usually in materialssuch as Viton from Dupont or Ethylene-propylene (EPDM) are constructed withlayers of reinforcement of Fibreglass, wiremesh or Kevlar.Often used for difficult applications whenmoisture, chemicals or vibration is present in the system. The robust natureof the product allows it to be used inheavy dust load applications without theneed for an internal sleeve.PTFE on the other hand is the ultimate inchemical resistance. Highly flexible,lightweight, temperature resistant to300c...

Used primarily as heavy-duty protectorsin many different industries. Typicalapplications include the protection ofscrew down gear on rolling mills andhydraulic rams on heavy presses, plusthe fabrication of cooling air ducts ontraction motors for diesel-electriclocomotives. They are also popular asslide covers.Based on heavy-duty elastomer-proofedfabrics, these bellows are a totallyvulcanised construction that provides a particularly rugged product. Variouslayers are preformed prior to thevulcanising process, this avoids theweakness inherent in bellows fabricatedfrom seperate pieces joined...
