Mercer Series 800 PTFE Teflon® Expansion
Joints are the Sure and Economical Way to
Solve Difficult Expansion and Misalignment
The Teflon
®
material is corrosive-proof, chemically inert and
does not age. Flexibility and flex cycle life is equally exceptional.
The Teflon
®
body is formed over the full sealing face of the flang-
es eliminating the need for separate gaskets. The fluid or gas
never contacts the floating flanges.
The Series 800 is manufactured in 2, 3 and 5 arch variations
designated 802, 803 and 805. Flexibility and allowable
movements increase with the number of arches. Teflon
®
is
ideally suited to the following problems:
• Handling Nitric or Sulfuric acid in mining or plating
operations
• P roviding low spring rates and high flexibility to protect
fragile FRP, PVC or glass pipe from damage caused by
expansion, contraction or ambient vibration
• Accommodating expansion and contraction in high
temperature (to 350°F, 177°C) caustic green, white and
black liquor lines in pulp mills
• P reventing pipe line vibration from damaging glass linings
in acid and caustic soda pumps
• P roviding flexibility to prevent flange leaks caused by the
minor explosions in lines from Chlorine generators in
bleaching plants of paper mills
• Providing non-contaminating, sterilizable, flexible
connectors for the food processing, medical, and chip
manufacturing industries
The standard assembly utilizes high strength carbon steel
flanges complete with three restraining bolts. The Teflon
®
is
reinforced externally with stainless steel rings between arches.
They are also available with stainless steel flanges and stainless
steel hardware. There is a Mercer Series 800 Teflon
®
Expansion
Joint to suit your needs.
