Expansion joints include: PTFE expansion joint, Rubber expansion joint, Metallic expansion joint, and Fabric expansion joint. visit website: www.rubbersealing.com

PTFE expansion joint

The PTFE expansion joints are unreinforced PTFE that come standard with iron 150# drill flanges. Stainless flanges are available. They are avaialable in 2, 3, or 5convolutions of varing movements. The 2-convolution joint is sometimes referred to as a "coupling".

Molded flexible couplings and expansion joints of PTFEdesigned to help protect pumps, compressors and other expensive equipment.

Bellows-type flexible couplings and expansion joints are contour molded of black PTFE by a patented process. They are corrosion resistant, non-aging, with extraordinary flex life and unmatched reliability. These superior units cost no more than those made of lesser materials. The flexible element is formed over the full sealing face of the end flanges eliminating troublesome separate gaskets.

How do you provide expansion joint in slab beam construction 75 meters in length?

The purpose of expansion joint , is to anticipate movement of structure due to temperature, earthquake,settlement. In 75 mtrs length of slabs we can make expansion joint in L/2 or 75/ 2 or L/ 3 for every 25 mtrs , we provide bearing Pads for movement. , actually this also name as movement joint.
