Rubber Flanged Pipe
Style 1100
General Rubber’s Style 1100 rubber flanged pipes are designed to absorb all-directional movements, reduce noise and vibration, have a cycle life in the tens of millions, compensate for minor misalignments, provide access to piping and equipment and relieve pipe and anchor stresses. Its archless spool type body is constructed with full rubber flanges, a high-grade leak-proof tube, multiple layers of high-strength tire cord, high tensile steel reinforcement, a seamless cover and hot dip galvanized steel retaining rings. This construction, as a standalone expansion joint, represents the most cost-effective arrangement when used in rigid piping systems with main anchors (MA) and numerous guides at specific spacing. Control units can be externally or internally attached and used as limit rods for secondary restraint or as tie rods when the support structure or adjacent equipment have load limitations.
