Allen-Bradley 2X18Exp Expansion Joint

2X18Exp Expansion Joint is a flexible pipe connector used in compressed air and industrial piping systems to absorb vibration, accommodate thermal expansion, and allow axial, lateral, and angular movement while reducing stress on connected equipment. With a 2 in nominal pipe size and an 18 in overall length, it is mounted inline to isolate vibration and dampen noise in air compressor lines, HVAC distribution, pumps, blowers, and industrial process piping. Construction varies by manufacturer and can include rubber, elastomer, or metal bellows, with connection types ranging from flanged to threaded depending on configuration, and it is typically designed to operate with compressed air and industrial gases. Standards are usually EJMA or equivalent. Common replacements for this size include Metraflex Rubber Expansion Joint 2 in. × 18 in., EVR Double Arch Expansion Joint 2 in., and RapidAir 2 in Rubber Expansion Joint.
