27/07/2021 Our customized solutions and types of expansion joints
At Bikar we are experts in offering tailor-made solutions. Each project is almost a blank canvas on which we must design and manufacture, ensuring that our customer’s needs are met at every stage.
We are manufacturers of the three types of expansion joints that exist:
- Fabric expansion joints: these are used in low pressure installations and with temperatures up to 1,200ºC. They are common in hot gas movement circuits. For their construction, we use the latest technology in the use of raw materials.
- Metal expansion joints: they are used for high pressure and temperature processes, in conducting fluids which are usually corrosive or in dangerous processes. Austenitic, super-austenitic or even titanium stainless steels are commonly used for these types of joints.
- Rubber expansion joints: they are commonly used for water circuits. The ones we manufacture atBikar have a versatility that allows us to make them in practically any size, from 1 ”to 160”, at pressures of up to 100bar and in all types of materials.
Our products are very versatile and, in most cases, are related to the Water sector. However, we are also present in the Energy, Oil & Gas, Chemical and Mining sectors, among others. We cover projects ranging from water desalination facilities for human consumption, to cooling circuits of power generation facilities, such as nuclear power plants, through pumping, catchments, etc.
In addition to an excellent product quality, we have a great response capacity and a high degree of technical and technological knowledge. In the same way, the demands and particularities of each client make us increasingly competitive and motivate us to continue improving our services around the world.
