FLEXON CONTROLLED-FLEXING EXPANSION JOINTS
For pressures up to 300 psi--temperatures to 800 F
Thecontrol ringsofFLEXON ControlledFlexing Expansion Joints provide guided flexing of the joint and prevent any permanent deformation of corrugations. Control rings are firmly anchored into corrugations to close working dimension tolerances. Expansion travel up to 7| in.
may be secured with a single FLEXON Expansion Joint.
Standard sizes from 3 in. to 48 in. N.P.S. in either stainless steel or copper. Available with or without stainless steel internal sleeves.

FLEXON FREE-FLEXING EXPANSION JOINTS
For pressures up to 30 psi . . . temperatures to 850 F
FLEXON Free-Flexing Expansion Joints are made with single or multiple cor rugations. Designed for expansion travel up to 3| in. per unit. Used in low to mod erate pressure systems to compensate
for expansion and for correcting piping misalignment.
Standard sizes from 3 in. to 48 in. I.D. in either stainless steel or copper. Avail able with or without stainless steel inter nal sleeves.

FLEXONIFLEX EXPANSION JOINTS For pressures to 5500 psi . . . temperatures to 1600F
FLEXONIFLEX units make it possible to utilize the expansion joint's advantages of compactness and simplicity of installa tion at pressures far beyond those which had previously been considered safe. Dependent upon size and temperature these units will handle pressures up to 5500 psi.
Standard FLEXONIFLEX units have stainless steel pressure carriers of the bellows type formed within integral control rings and end sections. They are available in single or multiple ply, lined or unlined. Sizes range from i in. pipe through 6 in. pipe.
