Thermo-welded expansion joint
Industries 3R now offers thermo-welded expansion joints made from fluoroplastic membranes which possess a very high resistance to temperatures and aggressive products. We also offer you the opportunity to rent equipment in order to make your own seals on site. The choice of material for the manufacture of thermo-welded expansion compensators always depends on the application.
