GARFLEX® 8100
GARFLEX® expansion joints feature rugged yet
fexible nylon cord reinforcement in a molded, spheri-
cal bellows design that ensures an exceptional burst
pressure rating. The streamlined fowing arch design
reduces turbulence and allows smooth, quiet fow—no
need to fll the arch and restrict its movement.
Benefts
¦Flowing arch design prevents sediment buildup and
reduces turbulence
¦ Floating fanges can be rotated to accommodate
torsional misalignment
¦Molded spherical bellows accommodate up to one
inch of axial movement and transverse defection
¦Nylon-reinforced nitrile tube earns high pressure rat-
ing without sacrifcing fexibility; resists most hydro-
carbons, oils and gasoline
¦Supplied silicone-free
Design
¦ Tube
• Nitrile bellows with rugged nylon tire cord rein-
forcement ensure strength yet fexibility
• Incorporates a fowing arch design to eliminate
product buildup
¦ Cover
• Homogeneous layer of neoprene coated with a
protectant withstands weathering and ozone
¦ Flanges
• Iron fanges are corrosion-resistant
Note:
Style 8100 expansion joints are supplied with rotating fanges drilled
to ANSI Class 150# specifcations. Can be installed against raised
face pipe fanges.
