Products

• Rubber Bellows
  Stourflex rubber bellows are the ideal solution for absorbing noise and vibration from pumps, chillers and other reciprocating equipment. Proven in service for over 30 years the product range is available in variety of elastomers including the popular EPDM and Nitrile. Comprehensive stocks are held for all installation lengths and flange drillings. All products are supported by technical data sheets and installation instructions.


• Expansion Joints
  Stourflex Expansion Joints are designed to eliminate the problems associated with thermal expansion and provide a cost effective solution when expansion cannot be accommodated by using the natural inherent flexibility of the pipe. Stourflex expansion bellows are manufacture in accordance with the Expansion Joint Manufacturers Association (EJMA) and are available in both standard stock production or bespoke designs.


• Pipe Anchors and Guides
  Stourflex pipework anchors & guides are designed to accommodate the forces and provide the restraints to control the movements generated by thermal expansion. They are designed to complement Stourflex expansion joints ensuring the prefect engineered design.


• Hoses & Pump Connectors
  Stourflex pipework anchors & guides are designed to accommodate the forces and provide the restraints to control the movements generated by thermal expansion. They are designed to complement Stourflex expansion joints ensuring the prefect engineered design. With our vast knowledge of expansion Joints and the loads they impose on pipework system we are able to provide a solution that best suits your installation and budget.


• Air & Dirt Separators
  The Stourflex range of Microbubble Air & Dirt Separators is designed to meet the demands of all building services heating and chilled water applications. The range includes the traditional vertically mounted horizontal unit , a unique horizontal high flow (Low Pressure Drop) Stainless Steel unit and Pressure Step Degasser for low pressure chilled water applications.


• Chemical Dosing Pots
  Stourflex Dosing Pots are designed to provide a controlled and cost effective method of chemical dosing to heating and chilled water systems. Stourflex dosing pots are of a mild steel welded construction and are supplied in a kit of parts to enable the unit to be assembled to best suit site conditions.


• Inertia Bases & AV Equipment
  Stourflex Inertia Bases are designed to reduce vibration from pumps and other reciprocating equipment. Inertia bases also reduce motion during start-up and shut-down, lower the centre of gravity and minimise the effect of unequal load distribution. Inertia base frames are specifically engineered to receive poured concrete and designed to suit all leading brands of pump including Grundfos, Wilo & Xylem.


• Caesar 11 Services
  Stourflex offer computer aided design using CAESAR II® Pipe Stress Analysis. The benefits of using computer aided design software enable our engineers to model and evaluate the behaviour of the pipework system. Therefore whether you are designing a new pipework system or assessing an existing one we can produce technical reports showing the forces which are generated by and need to be contained when installing expansion joints. This can significantly assist you in designing your pipework system.

Technical Capabilities

Engineering Design
We can provide technical advice on the application and installation of expansion joints and the marking of drawings showing the recommended location of bellows and pipework anchors & guides.

Load Reports
We can provide reports, using CAESAR II® Pipework Flexibility and Stress Analysis Software, showing the forces which are generated by and need to be contained when installing expansion joints.
