Mercer Flexmore Series 450 is the most economical, full-pressure elastometric expansion joint available. Tough fabric and tirecord plies are bonded between the tube and cover in a steel mold and then cured in a thermostatically controlled steam chamber.

The product is uniform in both appearance and performance. A wide, low profile arch provides exceptional flexibility and virtually eliminates the need for filled arches in all but the most severe sludge and slurry applications. External integral flange reinforcing rings control both radial and arch swell. A variety of cover and tube elastomers are available, offering superior chemical, aging and temperature resistance from -30° to +250°F (Max 250°F for intermittent service) operating temperatures.
