KE-Burgmann Fabric Expansion Joints, Metal Expansion Joints and Rubber Expansion Joints
With more than 45 years’ experience in the industry, KE-Burgmann is one of the leading suppliers of fabric expansion joints, metal expansion joints, and metal bellows and rubber expansion joints worldwide. Expansion joints are incorporated into pipe and duct systems to take up thermal expansion, pressure, vibration and misalignment, thereby preventing damage to the pipe-work or ducting system.
Expansion joints are vital components in most energy and industrial plants today. They are installed in air and flue gas duct systems in all power plants, FGD systems, gas turbine systems, diesel engine installations, petrochemical and chemical plants, incinerators, pump systems, cement works, steel works, on and offshore systems, ships and cruise vessels, etc.
Fabric expansion joints
KE® fabric expansion joints are customized to the customer’s individual needs from a variety of fabric materials, all specially developed for the use in high-temperature applications or aggressive environments. For this reason, fabric expansion joints from KE-Burgmann offer almost unlimited flexibility and numerous design possibilities for special demands. A full range of fabric expansion joints is available.
Metal expansion joints and metal bellows
Bredan® metal expansion joints and metal bellows from KE-Burgmann are manufactured as round or rectangular, single or multi-layer designs and in a wide variety of steel qualities. A metal expansion joint consists of a metal bellows and metal flanges.
The bellows is the central element, made by forming single or multi-layer metal cylinders into annular corrugations, specially engineered for the exact operating parameters of the individual piping system. From very simple designs to highly engineering designs.
All metal bellows are designed and manufactured in strict accordance with EJMA standards unless otherwise specified.
