PTFE-Lined Expansion Joint
A rubber expansion joint with an internal PTFE lining, designed to handle highly aggressive chemicals, solvents, and corrosive media while maintaining the flexibility and vibration-damping benefits of rubber.
Enquire NowThe PTFE-Lined Rubber Expansion Joint combines an elastomeric body (EPDM, Neoprene, Nitrile, etc.) with a seamless PTFE liner molded or bonded inside. The PTFE liner provides exceptional chemical resistance and protects the elastomer from attack, while the rubber body allows axial, lateral, and angular flexibility with excellent vibration and noise absorption. Typically supplied with flanged ends, these joints are used where standard elastomers cannot withstand the conveyed medium.
