Rubber Expansion Joint Los Angeles

The AFA Style 99 rubber expansion joints are specially crafted in a spherical shape. Reinforced with steel wire and nylon, these rubber balls undergo vulcanization under high pressure. These joints come with either floating metallic flanges or MCB unions. Thanks to its spherical shape, it offers high resistance to explosion. Its elastic structure provides several benefits: SUPERIOR ABSORPTION OF VIBRATION, NOISE, AND SHOCK The AFA Style 99 rubber expansion joints are designed to mitigate vibrations, noise, and inherent movement in piping systems. Installing these joints allows equipment to move freely, reducing vibration and sound typically found in metallic joints. They cushion against water hammer, pumping impulse, and waterborne noise. GREATER COMPENSATION FOR ELONGATION, COMPRESSION, LATERAL AND ANGULAR MOVEMENT Machines such as pumps, chillers, cooling towers, compressors, and piping systems can misalign due to wear, load stress, and foundation settling.
