The Ultrasphere is the the most widely applied rubber expansion joint available today. For a reasonable cost, it provides good pressure, temperature, and movement characteristics. It also helps to control pulsation shocks and noise transmission.
The floating metal flanges on the expansion joint freely rotate for easy installation, and it comes with tapped holes which eliminate the cost of nuts. Drilled holes are also available, as are stainless and metric flanges. The Ultrasphere with Cables is just like the Ultrasphere with one big difference: no control units are required. If you are not sure if you need control units, or if you don't want them installed on-site (possibly incorrectly!), this is the right choice.
Ultrasphere Twins are used exactly as the standard Ultrasphere, but it allows greater compression. Like the Ultrasphere, the Ultrasphere Twin can be provided with control cables.
Also available are Ultrasphere Twin Unions, which are used for connecting pipes and equipment where threaded union ends are preferred. Large inventories of Ultraspheres are kept at the Flexicraft warehouses for quick delivery.
Neoprene, EPDM, Butyl and Hypalon materials for these expansion joints are all stocked. Contact the factory for alternative lengths.
