Type 43
Fabric Expansion Joint

Standard model fabric expansion joint composed of single- or multi-layer fabric with concave convolution, available in cylindrical or rectangular shape for mounting with flanges on the pipeline.

Enlarged concave convolution allows for extreme compensation and some external pressure.
