Product Description

A Twin Sphere Rubber Expansion Joint with female NPT threaded unions, made of neoprene, for noise/vibration isolation is a flexible piping connector designed to reduce the transfer of movement, vibration, and sound between connected pipe sections or equipment.

Key features

  • Twin sphere design
    • The two-arch or twin-sphere body provides greater flexibility than a single-sphere style.
    • Helps absorb:
      • vibration from pumps, compressors, and mechanical equipment
      • minor pipe misalignment
      • thermal expansion and contraction
      • pressure pulsation and shock
  • Rubber construction: neoprene
    • Neoprene offers good resistance to:
      • water
      • mild chemicals
      • oils and grease to a limited degree
      • weathering and ozone
    • Commonly selected for general industrial, HVAC, and water service applications.
  • Female NPT threaded unions
    • Threaded end connections allow straightforward installation into threaded piping systems.
    • Female NPT unions simplify assembly and removal for maintenance or replacement.
    • Best suited for smaller pipe sizes where threaded connections are standard.
  • Noise and vibration isolation
    • The elastomer body helps dampen mechanical vibration before it travels into the piping system or building structure.
    • Can reduce noise generated by rotating equipment and fluid turbulence.
    • Often installed near:
      • pumps
      • chillers
      • air handlers
      • compressors
      • circulation equipment

Typical benefits

  • Protects piping and connected equipment from stress
  • Extends service life of pumps, valves, and fittings
  • Reduces transmission of structure-borne noise
  • Compensates for small movements in multiple directions
  • Helps improve system reliability and maintenance access

Typical application note

This type of expansion joint is commonly used in HVAC, plumbing, water circulation, and light industrial piping systems where a compact, flexible connector is needed and threaded pipe connections are preferred.
