Expansion Joint / Stainless Steel Bellows

     

Primary Application

  • Widely used in industrial piping systems to absorb thermal expansion and contraction along the straight centerline of the pipeline.

  • Ideal for power plants, district heating networks, chemical processing plants, oil and gas distribution lines, and HVAC systems.

  • Suitable for conveying high-temperature utilities such as steam, hot water, exhaust gases, and various chemical fluids.

Structure & Specifications

  • Bellows Material: Stainless Steel SUS316 (Provides exceptional flexibility, high mechanical strength, and superior resistance to pitting and corrosion).

  • Size Range: Broad coverage from 25 mm to 1500 mm (1″ to 60″) to fit small process lines up to large-diameter industrial ducting.

  • Axial Movement Capability: Available in rated movement configurations of 25 mm, 50 mm, and 75 mm (designed to meet varying thermal expansion requirements).

Operating Temperature Or Condition

  • Working Pressure: Handles a versatile pressure range from 1 bar up to 25 bar.

  • Maximum Working Temperature: Rated for high-temperature operations up to 500°C.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Optimized Thermal Stress Relief: Highly engineered SUS316 corrugations safely compress and extend to neutralize intense thermal expansion, preventing pipe buckling and protecting connected equipment.

  • High Pressure & Temperature Resilience: Robust construction allows safe, long-term operation under demanding combinations of high internal pressures and extreme temperatures.

  • Extensive Size Adaptability: The massive scale of available sizes ensures a precise match for both standard utility lines and heavy-duty industrial process piping.
