Wear Piping

Expansion Barrel

An expansion barrel is a critical component in wear piping manufacture, as it enables piping networks to compensate for thermal expansion and contraction. The barrel is a machined telescoping piping assembly that is designed to be durable and long-lasting, providing a reliable solution for transporting slurry in harsh environments. By incorporating expansion barrels into the network, Bradken is able to ensure that wear is reduced and the overall lifespan of the piping system is extended.

The Purpose Of Expansion Barrel Includes:
  • Compensates for thermal expansion/contraction
  • Telescoping pipe assembly
  • Custom engineered to suit requirements
  • Prevents damage to pipeline network
  • Reduces maintenance and repair costs.

Features:

  • Hard chromed surface with multiple sealing options

  • Can be lined with CCO, DX, CWI or Neoprene

  • Optional External or Internal Stop

  • Optional Built-in Wear Sensor

Advantages:

  • Reliable and long-lasting sealing with chromed and ground surface

  • Ability to match liner material to wear environment

  • Stops barrel from separating after maximum extension

Benefits:

  • Prevents corrosion of sealing sections

  • Uniform sealing mitigates leaks

  • Selecting the appropriate liner material optimizes wear life and cost

  • Barrel will not separate, even if surrounding anchors fail, offering peace of mind

  • Remote condition monitoring
