ABSTRACT:
A modified expansion joint to provide a transition from one conduit to an adjacent conduit. The expansion joint includes a flexible coupling member and an angled transition leg having insulation on both sides thereof. The flexible coupling member takes up any variations in dimensional differences between the adjacent conduits. The transition leg provides a gradual thermal transition from a hot upstream conduit to a downstream conduit at a lower exterior surface temperature.
