Severe service Expansion Joints for high temperature + high pressure applications require technical expertise and special design considerations.

When designing expansion joints that require a combination of high pressure and high temperature in a severe service environment, determining the right solution can often be a challenge for manufacturers of industrial equipment.  After a thorough review of the specifications presented by the customer, the experienced manufacturer technically confirms, through calculation and best practice, that the best solution, for the application, is being presented.

MACOGA offers a wealth of experience in providing high-performance Expansion Joints for extreme operating conditions.

On this occasion, we have successfully designed, manufactured and tested a number of Expansion Joints for extreme working conditions, combining high temperature and high pressure:

Hydraulically formed multiply bellows made of Alloy 800H material

  • Reinforcement rings incorporated in the bellows
  • Floating support system SS 304H
  • SS 304H Hardware
