PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Tecofi DI7140N Flexible Rubber Connector
DI7140N is a Tecofi (France) female-threaded rubber expansion joint: EPDM bellows, two malleable cast iron BSP female ends, DN15 to DN50, for hot and cold water. This page covers DI7140N only; DI7140A has the same size range and length but uses ACS EPDM, epoxy-coated ends, is for drinking water, and absorbs a larger angular movement.
Specifications
- Type: Rubber expansion joint, female threaded
- Size range: DN15 to DN50
- Bellows: EPDM rubber
- Reinforcement: Nylon tyre cord
- Ends: Malleable cast iron, BSP female thread to ISO 228-1
- Fluids: Hot and cold water
- Length L: 200 mm
- Movements: Lc 22 mm, Le 6 mm, Li 22 mm, angle 20°
- Pressure test: To EN 12266-1, DIN 3230 and ISO 5208

Lc: axial compression; Le: axial elongation; Li: lateral movement; A: angular movement (per the datasheet).
Difference from DI7140A
- Materials: DI7140N has EPDM bellows and malleable cast iron ends; DI7140A has ACS EPDM and malleable cast iron ends with a 50 µm epoxy coating.
- Fluids: DI7140N states hot and cold water; DI7140A states drinking water.
- Angular movement: DI7140N absorbs 20°; DI7140A absorbs 40° (Lc, Le, Li are the same).
- Working conditions: the DI7140A datasheet states a maximum pressure of 16 bar and a temperature of -40°C / +120°C; the DI7140N datasheet states no working pressure or temperature, so none is given for DI7140N on this page.
- Weights differ (for example DN15: 0.70 kg vs 0.45 kg; DN50: 2.62 kg vs 2.54 kg).
Applications
Reduces mechanical and thermal stress on pipes and related equipment (pumps, compressors, motors); absorbs vibration and noise; compensates axial, lateral and angular movement; corrects piping misalignment. Fluids: hot and cold water (per the datasheet).
Standards / Certifications
BSP female threaded ends to ISO 228-1; pressure tests to EN 12266-1, DIN 3230 and ISO 5208. The datasheet has a “Product approvals” heading but lists no specific approval.
