The Premium-Flex Style 8000 molded, single-sphere rubber expansion joint is the most widely used rubber expansion joint on the market today. Designed to endure the most demanding piping system configurations, this rubber expansion joint allows for axial compression or extension, lateral deflection, as well as angular movement. Internal pressure within the “sphere” is exerted in all directions, distributing forces evenly over a larger area. It is constructed to handle pressure, temperature, and flexibility, and it is effective at managing vibrations and reducing noise.
This rubber expansion joint features floating metal flanges with drilled holes that can rotate freely for a streamlined, easy installation process. Molded, single-sphere, bellows are stronger than conventional hand-built spool arch types and the spherical design reduces turbulence and sediment build-up.
The Premium-Flex is available in rubber elastomers such as Neoprene, EPDM, and Nitrile, all of which are in stock.
Optional control units are available and are essential for many applications.
