240-A240-C 240-AV,D,E,M SERIES242-A,B,C 240/242 molded expansion joints PROCO Series 240 and Series 242 Non-Metallic Expansion Joints are designed for tough demanding industrial applications as found in: Air Conditioning-Heating and Ventilating Systems, Chemical-Petrochemical and Indus- trialProcessPiping Systems, Power Generating Systems, Marine Services, Pulp &Paper Systems, Water-Waste- water-Sewage and Pollution Control Systems. Installed next to mechanical equipment or between the anchor points of a piping system, specify the PROCO Series 240 or 242 to: (1) Absorb Pipe/Movement/Stress, (2) Re- duce System Noise, (3) Isolate Vibration, (4) Compensate Alignment/Offset, (5) Eliminate Electrolysis, (6) Pro- tect Against Start-Up/Surge Forces. Our history in the manufacturing of expansion joint products dates back to 1930. When you need an engineered rubber solution to a piping system problem, call PROCO.
