The EPDM TYPE-EE 9175K58 Rubber Expansion Joint is a high-quality component designed to enhance the performance and longevity of piping systems. With a nominal diameter of 6 inches (150mm) and rated for ASA 150LBS, this expansion joint effectively absorbs pipe movements, reduces stress, minimizes noise and vibration, and compensates for misalignment.
Key Features
- Material Composition: Constructed from EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber, known for its excellent resistance to heat, ozone, and weathering, ensuring durability and reliability in various operating conditions.
- Flange Design: Equipped with ASA Class 150 galvanized carbon steel floating flanges, featuring standard ANSI drilling. The rotating design facilitates easy alignment and installation without the need for additional gaskets.
- Operational Performance: Capable of handling operating pressures up to 225 PSIG and temperatures up to 225°F, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial applications.
- Movement Accommodation: Designed to allow axial compression and expansion, lateral deflection, and angular movement, effectively absorbing vibrations, noise, and shock to protect downstream piping and equipment.
- Design Efficiency: The smooth, flowing arch design reduces turbulence and sediment buildup, promoting efficient fluid flow within the piping system.
Applications
This rubber expansion joint is ideal for use in various industries, including:
- HVAC systems
- Water and wastewater treatment plants
- Chemical processing facilities
- Power generation plants
- Marine and shipbuilding applications
By integrating the EPDM TYPE-EE 9175K58 Rubber Expansion Joint into your piping system, you can significantly enhance its flexibility, reduce mechanical stress, and extend the service life of the entire system.
