Expansion Joints

Reliable Rubber Expansion Joint Products for Efficient Piping Systems | Arvicorubber

Piping systems play a crucial role in various industries, transporting fluids, gases, and other materials from one place to another. However, these systems are subjected to various environmental and operational challenges, leading to movement, vibration, and thermal expansion. To address these challenges, the use of rubber expansion joints has become a necessity.

What is an Rubber Expansion Joint?

An expansion joint is a component that allows movement between two adjacent piping sections and helps to absorb thermal expansion, reduce noise and vibration, and eliminate stress on the pipeline. Rubber expansion joints are designed to accommodate these movements while maintaining a tight seal to prevent leaks.

Why are Expansion Joints Necessary?

Expansion joints play an essential role in piping systems, helping to absorb the thermal expansion caused by changes in temperature and reducing the stress on the pipeline. By allowing movement between two sections, expansion joints help to prevent cracking and damage to the piping system. They also reduce noise and vibration, making the system more efficient and reliable.

Types of Rubber Expansion Joint Expansion joints are available in a variety of materials and designs, each suited for specific applications. At Arvicorubber, we offer a wide range of rubber expansion joint products, including the following types:

Expansion Joint: This type of joint accommodates movement in pipelines, reducing stress and absorbing thermal expansion. The joint is made of rubber, providing a tight seal and preventing leaks.
