Welded Corrugated Expansion Joint

Welded Corrugated Expansion Joint

This axial expansion joint features direct welding at both ends and stainless steel corrugated pipes. It boasts zero leakage, high pressure and high temperature resistance, and a long service life, making it the preferred choice for thermal/steam/chemical/direct-buried pipelines.

Working Principle

Thermal expansion and contraction of the pipeline generates axial thrust → bellows expands and deforms → absorbs axial displacement (±20–±200mm); the welded connection eliminates gaskets, resulting in zero leakage, while simultaneously absorbing vibration and protecting the pipeline network.

Core Advantages

Welded-Corrugated-Expansion-Joint-10

Absolute Sealing: Fully welded, gasket-free, zero leakage.

Higher Pressure Resistance: PN10–PN40 (maximum 6.4MPa), temperature resistance -40℃~450℃, suitable for steam/hot oil.

Longer Service Life: No vulnerable parts, fatigue life ≥1000 cycles, matching the pipeline's lifespan.

Lower Cost: No flanges/bolts/gaskets required, reducing costs by 20%–30%.

Direct Burial Compatibility: After corrosion protection at the welded joint, it can be directly buried, resisting settlement and providing waterproofing.

Application Scenarios

1. Urban Heating/Steam Pipeline Networks: Long-distance straight pipe sections, overhead/underground/direct burial.

2. Power Plants/Petrochemical/Metallurgical: High-temperature and high-pressure steam/hot oil pipelines, boiler outlets.

3. Chemical/Pharmaceutical: Pipelines for highly corrosive, toxic, flammable, and explosive media.

4.Municipal Water Supply and Drainage: Large-diameter, high-pressure, direct-buried pipelines.

 

Installation Key Points

1. Welding Requirements: The end pipe must be fully welded to the main pipe, free of porosity and cracks, and the weld joint must be corrosion-resistant.

2. Support Setup: Fixed supports + guide supports should be installed at both ends to balance the internal pressure thrust.

3. Tie Rod Treatment: Remove the transport tie rods after installation/pressure testing; they must not bear any load.

4. Flow Direction: The guide tube should face the direction of medium flow; it can be installed horizontally or vertically.
