Single Expansion Joint
- Single Expansion Joints has one bellow.
- Extension lateral and angular movement can be accommodated.
- These expansion joints do not restrain the internal pressure thrust.
- Where small thermal movements are involved and proper anchoring and guiding is feasible, a single expansion joint is the most economical installation.
Single Tied Expansion Joint
- Single Tied Expansion Joints also have one bellows, except the overall length is restrained by tie rods designed to contain pressure thrust.
- A single tied EJ is usually designed for lateral offset so that the tie rods can remain fully engaged and loaded with the pressure thrust force. A two tie rod design can accept angular deflection in a single plane.
