Classification of non-metallic expansion joints

27 Mar.,2025

Non-metal expansion joint, also known as non-metal compensator, is a flexible element used to release pipeline stress, including two structures for air duct system and management system.

 

Non-metal expansion joint, as an important pipe connection equipment, is widely used in various industrial fields. Its unique material and structural design makes non-metal expansion joints play a role in protecting the safe operation of pipelines or equipment when connecting pipelines. The following general bellows series will give a detailed introduction to the classification of non-metal expansion joints.

First, the air duct system

The main working elements of the non-metal expansion joint for air duct system are composed of rubber, fluoroplastic, fiber fabric, thermal insulation material and metal structural parts.

Two, pipeline system

Non-metal expansion joints for piping systems, the main components of which consist of fibrous fabrics or metal-reinforced rubber or fluoroplastics and metal structural parts.

When selecting non-metal expansion joints, it is necessary to choose according to the actual use environment and needs. Different types of non-metallic soft connections have different structural characteristics and properties, which need to be comprehensively considered according to pipeline media, temperature, pressure and other factors. In addition, when installing and using non-metal soft connections, it is also necessary to pay attention to the correct installation method and maintenance to ensure its long-term stable operation and safety.

As an important pipe connection equipment, non-metal expansion joints have been widely used in various fields. Through the in-depth understanding of the classification and performance characteristics of non-metallic expansion joints, it is possible to better select and use non-metallic expansion joints to provide more reliable and efficient solutions for industrial production and pipeline connection.
