What we offer
High quality, fully customisable Rubber Expansion Joints
Your piping is essential to your equipment and your business. At the same time, your piping needs are unique. Finding the right solutions to specific pipe-related problems can be difficult. FLSmidth offers a reliable solution.
Correct misaligned pipeline connections and dampen harmful vibrations with our Rubber Expansion Joints. Enjoy low maintenance and exceptional wear life; each Rubber Expansion Joint is crafted with rugged, sturdy, long lasting rubber that assists in vibration dampening and easily outlasts most other options. And because extreme environments are where durability matters the most, these Rubber Expansion Joints are also very resistant to corrosion during a wide range of temperatures, and offer reduced stress due to extension and contraction.
As fully customised solutions, the Rubber Expansion Joints can fit whatever specific piping needs you have, whether that is air conditioning, industrial application, ventilation, petrochemical handling, marine services, water or sewage systems or other piping systems. They are suitable for the following fluids: water, air, warm water, seawater, weak acids and alkalies and more.

Hypalon Cover Coating
Provides extra protection against ozone, weather and the environment.
Elastomer Cover
Made from natural, neoprene, nitrile, butyl, hypalon and EPDM to resist the atmosphere’s effects.
Deep and Wide Arch
Provides controlled resilience at the hinge point with maximum movement.
Reinforcing Rings
Made of heavy-duty solid steel and embedded in elastomer for maximum pressure and vacuum service.
Elastomer Filter
Used between reinforcing rings to absorb vibration, sound and electrolysis.
Body Fabric
High tensile elastomer impregnated synthetic fabric. Product design pressure (positive/ negative) may determine the use of other fabrics depending on the relationship of fabric plies to the body Reinforcing Rings.
Extra Flange Plies
Built-in for greater strength and integrity between body and flanges.
Backing Flanges
Made from mild steel, galvanised or stainless steel on request.
