RUBBER EXPANSION JOINTS
Description
BF-PPS design is the most innovative product with more Than 15 years of research in improving design manufacturing processes on rubber expansion joints, developed to manufacture an expansion joint that fits to any customer needs.
Initially used in GRP pipe systems (glass-reinforced plastic). Thanks to its great elasticity and ability to absorb movement, its activation forces are minimal. Because of its characteristics, it can resolve any type of problem found with other types of rubber joints.
BF-PPS design allows BIKAR to produce in any diameter, any length, material or pressure, thus being able to satisfy the needs of the most demanding clients.
