[ Joint-Type Selector ]

Not Sure Which Expansion Joint Type You Need?

Send us the operating conditions and available drawings. We will help identify the information required to select the appropriate metal, fabric or rubber solution. Or answer three questions for a starting point.

Q1 — What is flowing through the system?

Liquid — water, seawater, wastewater, chemicals, oils

Steam, condensate, process fluid or hydrocarbon under pressure

Air, flue gas or process gas in ducting

Q2 — What is the operating pressure?

Low or near-atmospheric ducting

Pressurised piping

Typical pumped-liquid pressures

Q3 — What matters most?

High temperature or pressure capability

Large movement with low reaction force

Vibration and noise isolation

Answer a question to begin

The medium carries the most weight, then the operating pressure, then the governing requirement.

This is a general guide. Final selection depends on a full review of operating conditions, movement, pressure thrust and system restraints.
