Copper Axial Expansion Joints

Copper Axial Expansion Joints

Product Code: BAC

EMFLEX axial expansion joints with copper ends are used to absorb thermal expansion in straight pipelines. They are installed with anchors, which are required to withstand the forces of the internal pressure in the bellows. Correct alignment of the pipeline is essential with this type of expansion joint, and proper pipe alignment guides are recommended. Only one axial expansion joint should be installed between each pair of anchors.
