Flexible Pipe Connector (Brass Coupler)

Features & benefits

• can be applied in combination with:
  • inlet and outlet of fan coil units, air handling units, chillers and condensers
  • air suction and discharge of pumps
  • intervals in chilled water piping
• installation of Flexible Pipe Connectors is recommended to allow for axial pipe movement due to thermal expansion or contraction, thereby protecting the building structure from damaging stress. These connectors also help to isolate the low and high frequency vibrations transmitted through pipe walls
• allows for both axial and horizontal movement
• the triangular flange design offers much better reliability, safety and convenience as compared to union type connectors
• unique pressurized steel wire strand for additional safety
• Construction Features
  • bellow: Neoprene (NBR and EPDM available on request)
  • reinforcement: nylon cord fabric
