Description
We Offers All Types Of Tie Rod Metal Pipe Expansion Joints. Each Type Has Advantages And Limitations That Can Provide Flexibility, Load Reduction, Structural Integrity And Reliability Required In A Piping System.Metal Pipe Expansion Joints Can Withstand The Design Temperatures, Pressures, As Well As, Provide The Capacity Necessary To Absorb Thermal Growth Of The Piping System. The Thermal Movement Required Can Be Axial, Lateral Or Angular. In Some Cases, The Pressure Thrust Of A Pipe Expansion Joint Must Be Restrained By The Use Of Tie Rods, Hinges Or Gimbal While Allowing The Bellows To Move Through Its Design Deflections.A Tie Rod Is A Simple Pressure Thrust Restraint. It Will Allow Reasonable Lateral Movement But Not Axial Extension; It Can Allow Axial Compression If The Pressure Thrust Is Overcome By The Piping Movement. The Function Of Tie Rods Continuously Restrain The Full Pressure Thrust During Normal Operation While Permitting Only Lateral Deflection. Angular Rotation Can Be Accommodated Only If Two Tie Rods Are Used And Located 90 Degrees Opposed To The Direction Of Rotation.
