PTFE expansion joints for high pressures

PTFE expansion joints for high pressure environments are usually designed to absorb vibrations and expansions, which is a quite common situation in some pipes because of differences in temperatures, pressures or external movements and the weight of the pipes themselves. Where the values of forces and movements overtake the acceptable values it is necessary to use expansion joints which can absorb excessive expansions and vibrations.

FF.GI Srl can provide PTFE expansion joints with reinforced waves (from 1 to 5 waves) both with DN (EN 1092-1) flanges or with flanges in inches (ASME B 16.5), and with 2 or 3 limit rods subject to the diameter.

PTFE parts can be made in virgin FLON-CHEM 1000 PTFE, modified FLON-CHEM 1075 PTFE or antistatic FLON-CHEM1022/1023 PTFE for ATEX environments.

In addition to that our PTFE expansion joints with reinforcement rings comply with legislation for pressure equipment (PED) 2014/65 / UE.
