nnnnThese PTFE concentric spool-type flexible couplings are
nnnndesigned to reduce noise and compensate for expansion,
nnnncontraction and minor piping misalignment in chemical
nnnnprocessing, air conditioning and heating systems.
nnnnStyle 214
nnnn■ Two convolutions

nnnnPressure: To 178 psig (12 bar),
nnnnFull vacuum to +350°F (+180°C)
nnnnStyle 215
nnnn■ Three convolutions
nnnn■ Temperature: -100°F (-70°C) to +450°F (+230°C)

nnnnFull vacuum to +180°F (+80°C)
nnnnBenefits
nnnn■ Convolution shape provides extra-long flex life at high
nnnntemperatures
nnnn■ Proprietary contour molding process ensures consis-
nnnntent wall thickness for blowout resistance
nnnn■ PTFE body withstands corrosion, water, steam, and
nnnnmost chemicals and gases
nnnn■ Preset restriction bolts prevent over-extension
nnnn■ Available silicone-free
nnnnDesign
nnnn■ Complete assembly includes fluorocarbon resin
nnnnPTFE body, plated ductile iron flanges, polyethylene-
nnnncovered restriction bolts and corrosion-resistant rein-
nnnnforcing rings
nnnn■ Standard sizes from 1" (25 mm) through 8" (200 mm)

nnnnPressure and Vacuum Rating
nnnnGarlock PTFE expansion joints and couplings have pres-
nnnnsure ratings high enough to handle most applications. As
nnnnthe pipe size gets larger, Garlock increases the bellows
nnnnthickness and the strength of the reinforcing rings to com-
nnnnpensate for the change in internal forces. This permits the
nnnnsame high pressure rating for all sizes.
