lateral pipe expansion joint / steel / for the chemical industry

Lateral expansion joints

Structure: Steel bellows with lateral motion tensioning system and flanges or weld-on ends.

Movement absorption: Lateral shifting of the expansion joint can be absorbed. The tensioning system absorbs axial stresses and relieves the load on the pipeline fixed points. Lateral expansion joints with two steel bellows and a distance pipe are used to absorb significant movements.

Fixed points: Only light fixed points are required to absorb lateral displacement and friction forces.
