Expansion joints (compensators) are essential components designed to absorb thermal expansion, vibration, and movement in piping systems.
Types of Expansion Joints
- Metal expansion joints
- Rubber expansion joints
- Fabric expansion joints
Why Are They Important?
- Compensate for thermal expansion
- Reduce vibration and noise
- Protect piping systems from stress damage
In high-pressure and high-temperature systems, expansion joints significantly improve operational safety and extend system life.
