Expansion Joints

ProcessBarron designs, manufactures, and installs metal and fabric expansion joints to manage heat-induced expansion, reduce vibration, and protect industrial ductwork. Suitable for fans, stacks, baghouses, precipitators, and scrubbers, our joints handle axial, lateral, torsional, and angular movements. Fabricated to FSA standards with AWS-compliant frames, we offer turnkey services, field inspection, installation, and emergency repair. With materials ranging from standard steels to exotic alloys and fabrics rated up to 1800°F, our expansion joints ensure efficient, long-lasting performance.

Product Description

ProcessBarron designs, manufactures, and installs high-performance expansion joints to manage heat-induced expansion, reduce vibration, and protect ductwork in industrial draft systems. Our metal and fabric expansion joints are engineered for a wide range of applications, including ID and FD fans, ductwork, stacks, baghouses, precipitators, and scrubbers. We offer metallic expansion joints (round, square, rectangular) for corrosive or high-temperature environments, capable of handling axial and lateral (bi-directional) movements in flue gas and process ducts. Our fabric or non-metallic expansion joints (elastomeric/composite) allow multi-plane movement in compact face-to-face dimensions, accommodating axial, lateral, torsional, and angular movements with minimal spring rates. ProcessBarron provides comprehensive services, including field inspection, evaluation, installation, temporary repair, splicing, and turnkey solutions. All expansion joints comply with Fluid Sealing Association (FSA) standards, and frame welding meets AWS D1.1 guidelines. We fabricate frames from a wide variety of steels, including A36, A588, stainless steel, and exotic alloys. We maintain an extensive stock of fabrics and insulation for standard and emergency deliveries, supporting applications from low temperatures up to 1800°F, and can accommodate custom molded fabric requirements. With experienced engineering and service teams, ProcessBarron ensures your expansion joints deliver reliable, long-lasting performance while maintaining efficient operation in demanding industrial environments.
