Twin-Sphere Rubber Joint with Floating Flanges GFLAX-F2
GALA Regulating System Rubber Joints
Features
High pressure resistance
Combining the latest molding techniques and extremely tough synthetic rubber fiber, FLEXIBLE RUBBER JOINT can be safely used up to a working pressure of 240 psi (16 bars) for size 32mm to 200mm and 150 psi (10bars) for size 250 and above, Rapture pressure of of 780 psi (55kgf/cm ). FLEXIBLE RUBBER JOINT can also withstand a considerable vacuum force, making it ideal for use at the suction and delivery ends of a fluid distribution system.
Large Compression, Elongation and Angular Movement
Fit for suction and delivery (discharge)
Additional Features and Benefits
1.Additional gaskets and/or packing are not required.
2.Simplified installation in all piping systems using easy alignment flanges.
3.Ability to absorb considerable elongation and compression of pipes caused by temperature changes prevents piping system breaks and equipment down time.
4.Absorbs the force created by pulsating water and reduces the effect of water hammer.
Typical Applications
1.Cold and warm water pressure piping systems in commercial and industrial buildings and plants.
2.Pump and turbine piping used for power generation plants, industrial machinery and pump blowers.
3.Feed-water and drainage piping for water, wastewater, and sanitary system.
Note: FLEXIBLE RUBBER JOINT is not applicable for use with oil, air gases, hot water supply lines and with pool water.
