SolarBall

The SolarBall is an innovative high-pressure, high-temperature ball joint designed to dramatically reduce pipe stress in systems that develop high-bending loads due to thermal and/or mechanical movement. The low-torque SolarBall joints allow for mirror rotation and collector tube thermal expansion, while maintaining seal integrity.

High-quality and cost-effective, with enhanced mechanical and sealing properties, BlueSky's flexible piping connectors provide reliable service in the most severe applications.
