Expansion PipesThermal Movement Control
316L stainless steel push-fit expansion pipes absorb the thermal movement that builds up in long runs, high-rise stacks, and hot-soil installations. The EPDM gasket—rated to 248°F (120°C)—lets the joint travel while staying sealed for both gravity and vacuum service, keeping stress off the rest of the run.
