  2. Expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expansion_joint

    Pipe expansion joints are necessary in systems that convey high temperature substances such as steam or exhaust gases, or to absorb movement and vibration. A typical joint is a bellows of metal (most commonly stainless steel ), plastic (such as PTFE ), fabric (such as glass fibre) or an elastomer such as rubber .

  3. Metal expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_expansion_joint

    Lateral expansion joints that are movable in all planes simultaneously absorb expansion from two pipe sections in different directions. The following basic rules apply to lateral compensation: In accordance with the movement type, lateral expansion joints are always arranged at right angles to the pipeline being compensated, which means that ...

  4. Hinged expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinged_expansion_joint

    The expansion joint hinges provide for angular movement and will resist pressure thrust forces. [4] Individual hinged expansion joints used in piping systems are restricted to pure angular rotation by its hinges. As a pair, hinged expansion joints will function together to absorb lateral deflection.

  5. Refractory lined expansion joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractory_lined_expansion...

    A Refractory lined expansion joint is an assembly used in a pipe line to allow it to expand and contract [1] as climate conditions move from hot to cold and helps to ensure that the system remains functional. The refractory-lining can be vibra cast insulation with anchors, abrasion resistant refractory in hex mesh, gunned insulating refractory ...

    US Bellows is a manufacturer of metal bellows, fabric expansion joints, and metallic expansion joints including refractory lined, hinged, gimbal, slip-type, in-line pressure balanced, and elbow pressure balanced expansion joints. It was acquired by Piping Technology and Products in 1997 from Ketema-U.S. Bellows, Inc. [1] and is now located in ...

  7. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_plumbing_fitting

    To make a solder connection, a chemical flux is applied to the inner sleeve of a joint and the pipe is inserted. The joint is then heated, typically by using a propane or MAPP gas torch, although electrically heated soldering tools are sometimes used. Once the fitting and pipe have reached sufficient temperature, solder is applied to the heated ...
