OVERVIEW: Flexicraft Compensators with female sweat ends are available in diameters up to 3". They are kept stocked, with compressions of 2" or 3", and are suitable for thermal expansion of copper pipe.
For carbon steel pipe in these sizes, see our other Compensators that have thread, flanged, and weld ends. The Compensators are part of our full line of expansion joints for piping.
Pipe guides are also offered with these units. Spider 10 Guides with the optional die-electric spacers should be specified for copper pipe.
FEATURES:
Allows long axial compression movements of 2" or 3" for smaller sizes
Kept in stock
Available with sweat ends

STAINLESS STEEL BELLOWS
Structure
Axces stainless steel bellows are available in a variety of structures and versions. The steel bellows is the flexible element of every compensator. It must fulfil the requirement for good movability with simultaneous pressure resistance. Variable parameters (wall thickness, number of plies, convolution geometry, number of convolutions) determine the pressure resistance, movement absorption and spring rate (self- resisting force) of the bellows. Oneply, two-ply and multiply bellows are manufactured from various materials with different wall thicknesses.
The calculation methods ascertain the stability limits. The ability to withstand buckling is the prime criterion for smaller bellows diameters, whereas in larger bellows diameters it is convolution stability.
Material qualities
Axces compensator bellows are manufactured from top quality sheet metal. Different material qualities are used to cover the many operating conditions in various industrial applications. The outstanding characteristic of the steels and alloys is their particular resistance to chemically aggressive liquid media. Please ask our Technical ConsultingService for detailed information about the media resistance of individual materials.
