General Rubber Corp products

General Rubber`s Style 1101 single (1) wide arch rubber expansion joints are designed to absorb large all-directional movements, reduce noise and vibration, have a cycle life in the tens of millions, compensate for misalignments, provide access to piping and equipment and relieve pipe and anchor stresses. Its spool type body is constructed with full rubber flanges, a high-grade leak-proof tube, multiple layers of high-strength tire cord, high tensile steel reinforcement, a seamless cover, and hot dip galvanized steel retaining rings. This construction, as a standalone expansion joint, represents the most cost-effective arrangement when used in rigid piping systems with main anchors (MA) and numerous guides at specific spacing. Control units can be externally or internally attached and used as limit rods for secondary restraint, or as tie rods when the support structure or adjacent equipment have load limitations.

General Rubber`s Styles 1102 and 1202, double (2) wide arch rubber expansion joints have twice the all-directional movement capabilities with half the spring rates of our single arch design. Additionally, they are designed to reduce noise and vibration, have a cycle life in the tens of millions, compensate for misalignments, provide access to piping and equipment and relieve pipe and anchor stresses. Its spool type body is constructed with full rubber flanges, a high-grade leak-proof tube, multiple layers of high-strength tire cord, high tensile steel reinforcement, a seamless cover and hot dip galvanized steel retaining rings.

General Rubber`s Styles 1103 and 1203, triple (3) wide arch rubber expansion joints have triple the all-directional movement capabilities with one-third the spring rates of our single arch design. Additionally, they are designed to reduce noise and vibration, have a cycle life in the tens of millions, compensate for misalignments, provide access to piping and equipment and relieve pipe and anchor stresses. Its spool type body is constructed with full rubber flanges, a high-grade leak-proof tube, multiple layers of high-strength tire cord, high tensile steel reinforcement, a seamless cover and hot dip galvanized steel retaining rings.

General Rubber`s Style 8101 single (1) arch sleeve type rubber expansion joints are designed with lower spring rates for reduced reaction forces and greater movement capabilities within a compact body. This optimally designed slip-on and lightweight construction represents the most cost-effective arrangement for low pressure applications. Mating flanges and hardware are not required, adding to the cost-effectiveness of this arrangement. The construction includes a high-grade leak-proof tube, a seamless cover, multiple layers of high-strength tire cord and stainless steel screw clamps. Additionally, they are designed to absorb large all-directional movements, reduce noise and vibration, have a cycle life in the tens of millions, compensate for misalignments, provide access to piping and equipment and relieve pipe and anchor stresses.
