Metal Compensators and Metal Bellows
Expansion joints are generally spoken "elastic". Components which are suitable for absorbing pipeline expansions and vibrations (e.g. due to heat, etc) or for compensating the installation of plant components.

Absorption of pipeline expansions and vibrations (e.g. due to heat).
Properties
Expansion joints are generally spoken "elastic". Components which are suitable for absorbing pipeline expansions and vibrations (e.g. due to heat, etc) or for compensating the installation of plant components. The design is decisively determined by the pumped medium, pressure, temperature, magnitude and direction of the expansion to be absorbed. RBS metal expansion joints or stainless steel expansion joints and corrugated hoses or metal bellows are used in particular for applications with high pressure. We manufacture all shapes and sizes of metal expansion joints from axial expansion joints with welding ends and flanges to cardan joint expansion joints with fixed flanges in a wide range of stainless steel qualities. Depending on the pressure, the stainless steel expansion joint can be single-walled or multi-walled. Quality is always in the foreground for us. Of course, we also offer all necessary accessories such as clamps, blind flanges, backing strips, adhesives, etc.

RBS Kompensator GmbH
In 2009, at the request of many customers, RBS Kompensator GmbH was founded as the 100% sister company of KS Kneissl & Senn Technologie GmbH under Senn Beteiligungs GmbH.
Building on the existing know-how about temperature-resistant high-performance fabrics, these began to be manufactured as individual pieces in the form of soft-material compensators by hand in Erl. Gradually, various sewing and welding machines were acquired in order to be able to produce all common shapes (round / square / round on square etc.) in the best possible way.
Together with our team we try to live the idea of the "One Stop Shop" and make sometimes impossible things possible according to our motto: "Viribus unitis - with united forces".
