R6906 5-Convolute PTFE Expansion Joints

Resistoflex R-Series 5-convolute expansion joints are contour molded of Teflon® T-62 PTFE by a patented process. R-Series expansion joints use limit bolts to control overextension during expansion, and NITRONIC 50 reinforcing rings. Wrap around safety shields are specifically designed to provide sprayout protection and are required in hazardous service. Learn more

All Dimensions in inches.
*At neutral length with limit bolts in place.
Maximum (axial) travel is based on installation with no misalignment or angular defection.
† This is an installation dimension not a limit bolt setting.
NOTE: Angular Deflection approx. 20°.
Consult Factory for spring rates for angular deflection.
R6906 Bellows is not recommended for vacuum service.

Pipe Motion may be absorbed by an expansion joint

"Maximum Travel" (±) may be called longitudinal movement or axial compression and extension. It is based on installation with no misalignment or angular deflection.

"Maximum Misalignment" may also be referred to as lateral offset or deflection. It is based on installation with no axial travel or angular deflection. "Maximum Angular Deflection" may be called angular rotation. It is based on installation with no axial travel or lateral offset.
