FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
The T series is available in ATEX (explosive atmosphere) compatible quality.
Due to its insulating properties, rubber is a very poor conductor of electricity.
Due to their non-conductive nature, rubber conducts very little electricity. The use of earthing braids may be necessary if there is a need to dissipate static electricity, ground a pipe, or ensure equipotentiality between two pipes.
Unlike fixed or split flanges, rotating flanges allow misalignment between pipe flanges to be accommodated without subjecting the expansion joint to torsional stress. Twisting of elastomeric expansion joints is prohibited.
