Product Description

Seismic FireGator joint absorbs ±4″ movement in all directions.

Designed to protect fire sprinkler systems crossing a building’s seismic joint, the rugged Seismic FireGator expansion joint’s small profile makes it ideal for applications requiring a minimal footprint.

The Seismic FireGator can be installed vertically or horizontally, and is maintenance free for the life of the piping system.

Designed and engineered to combine tried and true gimbal and bellows technologies, the Seismic FireGator is an extraordinarily strong, compact seismic expansion joint capable of handling high temperatures and pressures.

Product Highlights
  • In-line seismic expansion joint with hybrid gimbals/externally pressurized design
  • Use for seismic applications when a Fireloop or FireVoop seismic separation assembly will not fit
  • FM Approved in sizes 2″ diamater through 8″ diameter
  • Rated for +/-4″ movement in all directions
