Functional description

Flexgen expansion joints safely absorb thermal expansion and misalignments of pipe and duct systems in dry and medium temperature area. Flexgen products compensate for movements in multiple directions simultaneously.



Product variants

eFlexgen

eFlexgen

The main features of our new eFlexgen are lower emissions as well as increased robustness and performance. The multi-layer design that can withstand temperatures up to 575° C, have the ability to compensate for movements in all directions, and suitability for dry conditions. It can be delivered either as fabric only or as a preassembled unit. Additionally, it can be custom-made to fit the specific working conditions you have.

- Up to 90% lower emissions
- Improved safety
- Longer lifetime
- Saves energy in specific applications due to increased tightness
- Verified by Bureau Veritas
Pre-assembled units

Pre-assembled units

Pre-assembled expansion joint units consist of:

- Fabric expansion joint
- Metal frames/inner sleeves
- Gasket (optional)
- Fasteners

Frame material:
- Carbon steel
