What are the reasons for the use of stainless steel corrugated expansion joints
Stainless steel corrugated expansion joints, also called metal expansion joints, are used as compensation elements in piping systems or connecting equipment, and the manufacturer takes you through the reasons why stainless steel corrugated expansion joints are used in pipelines or equipment.
Stainless steel corrugated expansion joints consist of one or several stainless steel corrugated pipes, in the pipeline system to play a compensation element to absorb changes in the size of the pipeline or equipment caused by thermal expansion and contraction. Stainless steel corrugated expansion joint solves the thermal expansion of the pipeline or equipment. Pipeline system when conveying media with temperature changes or withstand changes in ambient temperature, will produce the amount of thermal expansion and contraction caused by changes in the size of the pipe. If the thermal expansion cannot be released under the restraint of fixed brackets, it will cause higher temperature stress in the pipeline or the phenomenon of pipeline destabilization. When the equipment is connected to the equipment, vibration will be generated when the pipeline is connected to the equipment, and the vibration of the equipment will be transferred to the pipeline inevitably, so that the pipeline will generate high-frequency alternating stress, affecting the safe operation of the pipeline.
 
Whether the displacement generated by the thermal expansion of the pipeline or mechanical vibration generated displacement, if not using compensation components to compensate for the hidden danger to the safe operation of the pipeline or system. Stainless steel corrugated expansion joint as a compensation element for pipelines and equipment, can effectively solve the thermal expansion of the pipeline, play the role of compensation displacement, vibration and noise reduction, protection of the pipeline.
