Gimbal Expansion Joints

Gimbal expansion joints provide angular movement in multiple planes while restraining pressure thrust—perfect for high-performance systems with 3D flexibility requirements.

Multi-Plane Angular Flexibility with Pressure Thrust Restraint

Gimbal expansion joints are designed to absorb angular movement in multiple planes using a specialized gimbal structure. These joints are equipped with gimbal rings and hinge mechanisms that contain pressure thrust forces, allowing them to manage complex thermal movement without overloading adjacent pipe supports or equipment.

  • Handles angular deflection in multiple directions

  • Effectively restrains pressure thrust using gimbal structure

  • Ideal for three-dimensional piping systems

  • Reduces stress on equipment and anchor points

  • Custom-built to match pressure, movement, and temperature needs
