Fabric expansion joints from Sudbury International are long-term, cost-effective solutions

Sudbury International carries fabric expansion joints.

Sudbury International Engineered Products Limited offers a broad product inventory – including metal, rubber, dog-bone, and fabric expansion joints. Many Canadian businesses count on fabric expansion joints from this supplier, because ducting and piping systems have to operate properly in all manufacturing facilities. These non-metallic expansion joints serve users as cost-effective, long-term solutions for ducts, and the Sudbury International team uses its collective experience and expertise to help all customers choose the right options for their individual, specific requirements.

Adding flexibility to ducting systems

These fabric expansion joints are assemblies that are constructed to absorb the temperature-induced expansion and contraction of construction material safely, hold components together, and/or enable movement caused by ground settlements or earthquakes. Usually used in ducting or piping applications, Sudbury International fabric expansion joints add flexibility to ducting systems in order to absorb thermal growth, isolate vibration and noise, and compensate for misalignment.

These fabric, non-metallic expansion joints also come with high quality standards. Each one of them is built from six high-performance elements (active length, gas seal, outer cover, insulation support layers, and flange reinforcement) and undergoes the stringent testing, inspection, and verification stages.

Fabric expansion joints by Sudbury International also combine high flexibility with durability. Flexing them requires less force than flexing metal joints does, but they can overcome the stresses of highly challenging work environments. They are available for customers in a wide variety of industries, such as smelting, electric utilities, petro-chemicals, and pulp and paper.

Another key advantage of these fabric expansion joints is that they offer stress relief for piping and ducting systems. Users can apply them in a wide range of temperatures, and they provide such valuable benefits as simple installation, convenient repairs, and high corrosion and chemical resistance.

Sudbury International supplies these non-metallic expansion joints in a variety of styles. The options include square, u-type, belt-type, round, and rectangular units in different kinds of materials. The distributor has been helping clients choose the appropriate solutions for unique circumstances for almost half a century now. Trust Sudbury International for lasting piping and ducting protection.
