Metallic expansion joints for North Africa

To meet the specific requirements of one of our clients, we have manufactured a wide variety of metal expansion joints. Within this supply, there is a quite characteristic expansion joint such as the BM-GI model, which we will focus on in this article. This extraordinary joint has been designed to allow angular rotation in any plane, offering unmatched flexibility and functionality.

The core of this metal expansion joint lies in the use of two joints perfectly connected to a common cardan pivot. This ingenious mechanism allows seamless angular rotation, necessary for a wide range of motion to meet various operational needs. In addition, the support ring that accompanies this joint can be adapted to a round or square shape, which improves its adaptability to different structural configurations.

Recognizing the importance of durability and safety, the linkage assembly and bolt pin have been designed to withstand significant clamping forces. Thanks to meticulous design and rigorous testing, this joint guarantees unparalleled support, ensuring your confidence even in challenging conditions.

Design specifications:
DN 100
ASME B16.5 150#
L330
Design conditions:
Pressure: 12 Bar
Temperature: 204ºC

 

In addition to its angular rotation capabilities, this metal expansion joint model excels in absorbing substantial lateral movements in multiple planes. The incorporation of a dual fuel design allows to absorb and reduce large lateral displacements. This feature ensures greater stability and strength, making it an ideal solution for demanding applications involving dynamic forces and variable operating conditions.

The introduction of this state-of-the-art metal expansion joint not only represents a leap forward in engineering technology, but also reflects our commitment to providing tailored solutions that meet the unique requirements of our customers. As industries evolve and new challenges arise, this innovative joint is ready to deliver perfect angular rotation and reliable performance in a multitude of applications.
