As a kind of elastic compensation element, expansion joint has the advantages of reliable operation, good performance and compact structure, and has been widely used in chemical industry, construction, water supply, drainage, petroleum, light and heavy industry, refrigeration, health, water heating, fire protection, electric power and other basic engineering fields, playing an important role in people’s life.What is an expansion joint?The expansion joint is also called the compensator, which is a flexible structure set on the container shell or pipe to compensate for the additional stress caused by temperature difference and mechanical vibration. Expansion joints are divided into metal expansion joints and non-metal expansion joints.Below, please compare the performance difference between metal expansion joints and non-metal expansion joints with Xiaobian, so as to have a more in-depth understanding of expansion joints. As an important category of non-metallic expansion joints, rubber expansion joints have a large displacement compensation ability, which can […]
