R6905 3-Convolute PTFE Expansion Joints
Resistoflex 3-convolute expansion joints are contour molded of Teflon® PTFE by a patented process. They are corrosion resistant, non-aging, with extraordinary flex life and reliability. The flexible element is formed over the full sealing face of the end flanges eliminating troublesome separate gaskets.		Ductile Iron Flange Installation Bolt Torque Data Testing

It is based on installation with no misalignment or angular deflection. "Maximum Misalignment" may also be referred to as lateral offset or deflection. It is based on installation with no axial travel or angular deflection. "Maximum Angular Deflection" may be called angular rotation. It is based on installation with no axial travel or lateral offset. Non-Shock Working Pressure vs. Temperature
