FLEXIBLE HOSES Stainless Steel Flexible Connectors contribute to the solution of vibration, noise, expansion and offset motion problems in piping systems. Assemblies are designed for both high and low temperatures, as well as high pressure and full vacuum. Stock sizes include 1/2” (13mm) through 16” (400mm) pipe diameter. Temperature ranges are from below 0°F (-18°C)…
VEE ASSEMBLES Many buildings are separated by expansion joints through the walls and floors. During an earthquake, the two adjacent parts resonate with relative motion of as much as ± 4” (100mm) in shear as well as toward and away from one another. Vertical motion is minimal. We have developed a unique product to handle…
Stock Expansion Joints Many expansion joints are custom manufactured to diameters as large as 8 feet (2.4m). The construction varies, depending on the operating pressure and the required movements. We can provide these unusual constructions in virtually every configuration. We can build to your specific product description or complete our own recommendations based on your…
Bellows Pump Connectors All bellows differ from Stainless Steel Hose in the corrugation configurations. Bellows are deeper and wider, and they are made of heavier material, to handle the pressures without braid. A very common location for our 2 ply Bellows is at the pumps. The face to face dimension is equal to the length…
Expansion Compensators Expansion Compensators and Housed Expansion Joints are basically a bellows that is protected by and guided within a pipe housing. While the industry offers two styles, one of which is referred to as “internally” and the other “externally pressurized”, they both serve the same function but we prefer the “externally pressurized” for improved…
Housed Expansion Joints Expansion Compensators and Housed Expansion Joints are basically a bellows that is protected by and guided within a pipe housing. While the industry offers two styles, one of which is referred to as “internally” and the other “externally pressurized”, they both serve the same function but we prefer the “externally pressurized” for…
Piping Guides Our newly developed Adjustable Sliding Guides offer many improvements over other guides: one size guide for all thicknesses of insulation, less friction with our Stainless Steel Slides, sturdier construction and they can be used as load supports as well. We still carry spider guides as well. Anchors are manufactured to order. Product Documentation
BALL JOINTS When ball joints are installed at each end of a pipe offset, the system can accommodate much larger movements with much lower anchorage requirements than solid pipe in the same configuration. We not only sell our flanged and weld end ball joints, but we engineer the systems should there be no specifications or…
VIBRAFLEX The Vibraflex 150 reinforced rubber pipe is hand built by our skilled craftsmen. To minimize pipe elongation, the carcass is constructed of multiple plies of high tensile polyester tire cord or Kevlar for high temperatures. Helical spring steel wire is imbedded in the carcass to prevent kinking or crushing as well as for radial…
SERIES 800 MERCER Series 800 PTFE Teflon® Expansion Joints are the Sure and Economical Way to Solve Difficult Expansion and Misalignment The Teflon® material is corrosive-proof, chemically inert and does not age. Flexibility and flex cycle life is equally exceptional. The Teflon® body is formed over the full sealing face of the flanges eliminating the…
