Bellows and expansion joints are typically used to connect engines to silencers. They are ideal where space is limited, but strength is a consideraion to absorb heat, expansion and vibration. With standard size of 2″ – 30″, customisation of connections both length and material to meet stringent specifications.

Metallic Bellows

Rectangular Metal Expansion Joint

Rectangular metals expansion joints are generally used to convey fumes from the boiler to the chimney or steam from the turbine to the condenser.

Single Expansion Bellows
Most economical expansion joint, total installed system cost may be higher than Gimbal, Hinge or Tied Expansion Joint System.
 
Universal Expansion Bellows
Economical expansion Joint. Absorbs large amount of lateral movement, total installed system cost may be higher than Gimbal, Hinge or Tied Expansion Joint System.
 
Tied Universal Expansion Bellows
Absorbs large amount of lateral movement in any direction. Eliminates pressure thrust loads. Absorbs the thermal growth of the attachments. Piping between the rod.
 
 
Pressure Balanced Bellows
Absorbs axial and lateral movements while still restraining pressure thrust. Eliminates main anchors, minimum guidance required.
 

Non - Metallic Bellows

Fabric Expansion Bellows
Absorbs axial and lateral movements and isolate vibration. Sometimes they even makeup for minor misalignments. Eliminates main anchor, minimum guidance is required.
