General Rubber - Model Styles 8101, 8102, 8103 -Rubber Slip-On Sleeve
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.
General Rubber`s Style 8103 triple (3) arch sleeve type rubber expansion joints have triple the all-directional movement capabilities with one-third the spring rates of our single arch design.
