・

Water and sewerage piping (e.g. water and sewerage piping, pump piping)

・

Agricultural water (e.g. piping for rainwater, drainage)

・

Civil engineering equipment (e.g. piping for muddy water emission, water supply)

・

Port facilities (e.g. piping for crude oil loading, rinse water)

・

Power plant piping (e.g. piping for circulation water in nuclear, thermal, geothermal power plants, fire protection)

・

Piping for various plants (e.g. piping for chemicals, water supply and drainage)

・

Excellent flexibility and resilience, as the primary material is rubber.

・

Reinforcement rings and material are positioned inside of the rubber allowing for a durable and stronger structure.

・

As the primary material is rubber, it can monitor large displacements in short interplanar dimensions as well as repeated displacements, such as those caused by earthquakes.

・

As the flexible joint is of an integrated structure, it is superior to metal joints in terms of waterproofing.

・

Since the primary material is rubber, its electric insulation is superior and can absorb vibration and noise generated by machinery.

・

Since the rubber flexible joint is lighter in weight than a metal joint, handling and installation are easy.

・

Since the material of the inner surface rubber can be selected according to the fluid flowing through the inside, a wide range of usage can be applied.

・

High pressure-resistance. Uses synthetic fibers and reinforcement ring (SGD400-D equivalent). Possesses high pressure-resistance against internal and external pressure.

・

Large amount of displacement in short interplanar distance.

・

Rubber flange structured and needs no packing.

・

No exposed metal parts in the inside surface. The inner surface is all rubber with excellent corrosion and abrasion resistance.

・

Strong integrated structure and excellent durability.

・

The inner surface is smooth and hydraulic resistance is small.

・

Good attenuation effect of vibration and noise transmission.

・

Lighter in weight than a metal joint allowing for easier handling.

・

Electric insulation is superior and effective in electrolytic corrosion prevention.

・

Usage is tremendous by selection of inner surface rubber material.

・

Bellows structure and low reactive force.

・

Integrated structure and full waterproofing.

・

Absorbs displacement in all directions.

・

Accommodates repeated displacement.

・

Absorbs large expansion/contraction in short interplanar distances.

・

Rubber flange with no need for packing.

・

Ideal for mounting on diagonal piping.

・

High pressure resistance. Uses synthetic fibers and reinforcement ring (SGD400-D equivalent), and possesses high pressure-resistance against internal and external pressure.

・

Mouthpieces at both ends allow for joining of various piping.

・

The inner surface is smooth and hydraulic resistance is small.

・

Corresponds to weight of 25-ton truck.

・

Absorbs displacement in all directions. Although eccentricity, bending, twisting, and displacement will occur at the same time during earthquakes, a smooth absorption of displacement is possible.

・

Absorbs repeated displacement. During large earthquakes, several dozen aftershocks with an intensity of 3 or more on the seven-stage Japanese seismic scale and several hundred main shocks and aftershocks combined can be expected to be applied on the pipeline. Absorption of this displacement is possible.

・

Absorbs high-acceleration displacement.
