Style 206 EZ-FLO
®
EZ-FLO
®
expansion joints contain a single wide
fowing arch, eliminating the need for flled arches on
slurry services. Garlock EZ-FLO
®
expansion joints have
successfully served all major industries, including pulp
and paper, steel, waste and water, HVAC, power gen-
eration, chemical, petrochemical and marine.
Benefts
¦
Self-fushing design eliminates media buildup and
reduces fuid turbulence
¦
High pressure- and vacuum-resistance ensures
longer life and reduces inventory requirements
¦
Lightweight design installs easily, costs less to ship
Design
¦
Tube
• Standard chlorobutyl liner extends to outer edge
of the fange for excellent chemical resistance
• Flowing arch design adds pressure resistance
and reduces product buildup
¦
Body
•
Rubber impregnated tire cord and polyester
cross-wrapped in bias-ply construction
¦
Cover
• Homogeneous layer of chlorobutyl elastomer
extends to the outside edge of the fange
• Coated with a weather-resistant protectant
Fully Tested and Field Engineered
All Garlock expansion joint styles have been rigor-
ously lab- and feld-tested, and engineered to ensure
long life and reliable service.

Movement Capabilities
Control Units
Control units must be used to protect expansion
joints from excessive movement if piping is not properly
anchored. See page B-19 for information.
* When EZ-FLO
®
expansion joints are furnished with special liners,
temperature and pressure ratings may change.
