How much pressure can rubber joints actually withstand in use?
A rubber joint, also known as a rubber pipe joint, is a key component in a piping system. Its role is to relieve the pressure of the medium in the pipeline when transferring water, gas or liquid in the pipeline and to ensure the safety of the pipeline system. However, there are certain risks involved in using rubber joints.
The production of rubber joints requires the use of vulcanized rubber, which needs to withstand certain pressure and temperature during the vulcanization process. If the vulcanization is improper, the rubber joint will be aged and deformed and lose its proper function.
 
When using rubber joints, the pressure of the medium may exceed its ability to withstand. If the flow rate of the medium is too fast, or the medium contains high concentration of gas or liquid, it may lead to the rupture and leakage of the rubber joint, thus endangering the safety of the system.
Therefore, when using rubber joints, it is necessary to choose suitable colloidal materials and vulcanization process, and to produce and use them in strict accordance with relevant regulations. At the same time, when using rubber joints, it is necessary to evaluate the pressure they are subjected to and take corresponding measures, if possible, to avoid rupture and leakage of rubber joints and ensure the safety of piping systems.
 
Rubber joints can withstand a certain amount of pressure when used correctly, but rupture and leakage can occur when they are used improperly or with poor manufacturing quality. Therefore, the correct use of rubber joints is crucial to ensure the safety of piping systems.
