THORBURN FLEXIBLE PIPING SPECIALIST SINGLE-FLEX MODEL "SF" SINGLE BELLOWS EXPANSION JOINT SYSTEM Thorburn's Single-Flex metallic bellows are specifically designed for piping applications requiring limited absorbtion of axial and lateral movements. Where small thermal movements are involved and proper anchoring and guiding is feasable, Thorburn's Single-Flex "SF" series expansion joint system provides the most economical installation. Single-Flex is the base member of Thorburn metal expansion joint family, consisting of a bellows element and end fittings. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS The most common application for Thorburn's Single-Flex expansion joint is to absorb axial movements of straight pipe between main anchors. MA THORBURN SINGLE FLEX “SF” G Shown typical installation for Thorburn's Single-Flex expansion joint system. Single-Flex "SF" should be placed near one anchor and guides should be used to assume proper alignment and movement control. Each anchor must be designed to restrain the full pressure thrust of the expansion joint. G MA Shown Thorburn Single-Flex "SF" series unrestrained single metallic bellows expansion joint system. TEFLON LINED BELLOWS Shown, special single bellows expansion joints with internal teflon liner (special design) for residue-free drainage of the filling pipes of a chemical tanker. DIESEL EXHAUST Typical application would be diesel power for oil rigs, work boats, auxiliary power, primary power and pleasure boats. Thorburn Single-Flex expansion joint is located in the center of the piping run and each single bellows absorbs the axial movement of the section of piping in which it is located. Thorburn Single-Flex expansion joints are also used to absorb small amounts of lateral movement. A directional main anchor must be used to absorb the pressure thrust.
