MASONFLEX In 1976 we introduced our first spherical expansion joints, under the name “MASONFLEX”. Although we had higher burst pressures than the other manufacturers, our technical literature still made people aware that Nylon reinforcement had to be derated at higher temperatures. MASONFLEX connectors did not always require control rod protection as the lengths at given…
SAFEFLEX Safeflex expansion joints are molded and vulcanized in hydraulic presses. This high pressure process produces a smooth finished product with outstanding adhesion between the cover, reinforcement and tube. Most of our competitors still use Natural Rubber impregnated Nylon tire cord between sulfur cured, EPDM covers and tubes. This construction becomes brittle with age at…
MFDEJ Masonflex Neoprene connectors are all designed with multiple plies of DuPont Kevlar® tire cord and Neoprene reinforcement. They are molded in hydraulic rubber presses where high pressure air bags expand inside the preforms to force the carcasses against the mold walls. The molds are held between heated platens, so vulcanization takes place in the…

SFDCR SFDCR twin sphere reducers eliminate the need for cast iron or steel transition pieces usually found on both ends of pumping systems. Since steel reducers are eliminated,there are space, cost and labor savings. The SFDCR has a wide range of applications. Safeflex expansion joints are molded and vulcanized in hydraulic presses. This high pressure…
SFU SFU single spheres are more than adequate for both sound reduction and movements in smaller pipelines. 3 bolt flanges increase sealing pressure and eliminate pullout common to threaded pipe coupling ends poorly adapted to this service. Safeflex expansion joints are molded and vulcanized in hydraulic presses. This high pressure process produces a smooth finished…
