The Slurryflex SJX-Series Custom Rubber Expansion Joint can be manufactured in a square or rectangular shape according to your specifications. It provides vibration control, compensates for pipework misalignment, and allows for thermal expansion in abrasive slurry applications.
This special custom expansion joint is suitable for suction and discharge duty involving the transfer of abrasive slurries, tailings, sand, and gravel, and can also be specified for hydrocarbons, chemicals, and acids.
All of our Slurryflex expansion joints are custom made in Australia from premium materials. Tell us about your application and we’ll help you choose the right materials, size, length, and end connections.
