Transflex®worldwide expansion joints
We have supplied and installed Transflex bridge expansion joints worldwide since 1974. The Transflex bridge expansion joints device consist of steel reinforced rubber modules, designed to absorb the expansion, contraction, translation and rotation movements of road bridges, with remarkable comfort to traffic, effectively sealed, low maintenance and easy replacement.
The Transflex bridge expansion joint range is supplied in modules of a given length and they are anchored to both sides of the bridge structural joint.
All Transflex bridge expansion joints models offer the possibility to make special pieces for kerbs, walkways, correction of skewed joints and other contours. In this way, the seal continuity is guaranteed.
