The JEC - Redflex R-5 Eccentric Reducing Expansion Joint, No Arches can be used as pipe reducers or increasers, flexible connectors or vibration and noise reducers. These reducers are designed to replace metal reducers used with pipelines from pumps, compressors and other equipment. Like Redflex Rubber and Vibration Pipes, elbows and other flexible connectors, they prevent damage to equipment and compensate for minor misalignments.
The inner lining and body of the reducer is constructed of elastomer. Steel wire is embedded in the body of the reducer for additional strength. A protective cover of natural or synthetic elastomer provides resistance to weather and ozone deterioration.
R-5 Eccentric Reducing Expansion Joints are manufactured to meet your exact piping needs. Flanges are designed to meet ASME Class 125 drilling. Split steel rings must be installed on the inside of the flanges.
