Expansion joints
Metal expansion joints
Pipework and ducting systems in industrial environments can be damaged, stressed and fatiqued due to thermal expansion, pressure, vibrations, misalignments id. unless these effects of those instabilities are neutralised or eliminated at source.
This will be achieved by installing metal expansion joints at points in the system where such axial -, angular -, lateral movements and stresses are generated. Metal expansion joints provide this flexibility which is required for a safe and maximum service life.
They are suitable for all kinds of products: liquid, gaseous, hot air, powdered, granular id.
HTT offers special versions for severe-service applications, particularly those in which corrosive, toxic, caustic or hightemperature products are being transferred.
Metal expansion joints can be customized to ensure they perform up to or exceed your expectations for your special application.
HTT can offer a wide range of options such as: double bellows, tie rods, hinges, internal sleeve, outside protective cover id.
