Why piping systems need rubber flexible joints
During the use of pipeline system, deformation and vibration will occur due to temperature, pressure, weight and other factors, which will lead to accidents such as rupture and leakage of pipeline if no measures are taken. Rubber soft joints can absorb the deformation and vibration of the pipeline, reduce the stress and vibration of the pipeline system, and thus ensure the safe operation of the pipeline.
 
The working principle of rubber flexible joints is to absorb the deformation and vibration of the pipeline through the flexibility of rubber material, thus reducing the stress and vibration of the pipeline system. When the deformation and vibration of the pipeline occur, the rubber soft joint will undergo elastic deformation, thus absorbing the deformation of the pipeline. Meanwhile, the internal structure design of rubber soft joints can also control the displacement direction of the pipeline to ensure the stable operation of the joint. The corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and pressure resistance of rubber soft joints can also adapt to different pipeline environments to ensure the safe operation of pipeline systems. What industries and fields are rubber soft joints applicable to?
 
Rubber soft joints are suitable for pipeline systems in petrochemical, chemical, electric power, metallurgy, shipbuilding and other fields. In the petrochemical industry, rubber soft joints are often used to connect high temperature and high pressure pipeline systems, which can effectively reduce the stress and vibration of the pipeline system and ensure the safe operation of the pipeline. In the electric power industry, rubber soft joints are often used to connect the brackets and towers of power transmission lines, which can adapt to the deformation and vibration of power transmission lines and ensure the stable operation of power transmission lines. In the shipbuilding industry, rubber soft joints are often used to connect the pipeline system of ships, which can adapt to the deformation and vibration of ships to ensure the safe operation of ships.
