Fabric Expansion Joints

Non-metallic expansion joints – highly flexible and customizable

Fabric expansion joints are manufactured from several layers of specially selected fabric and insulation materials. These fabrics are usually laminated with special elastomers or fluoropolymers to enhance their resistance against chemicals and various environments. Insulation layer provides excellent resistance against very high temperatures.

KLINGER Fabric expansion joints are typically used in power plants, gas turbines, cement industries, chemical industries, steel and iron plants, process plants.
