What is Metal Bellows Flanged Expansion Joint?

Metal Bellows Flanged Expansion Joint is a flexible connector used to absorb thermal expansion or contraction in piping systems, ducts or other mechanical systems. It consists of a series of metal bellows or thin-walled pipes attached to end fittings. Bellows are designed to expand and contract in response to changes in temperature or pressure, allowing movement and flexibility within the system.

Metal bellows expansion jointis widely used in various industries including power generation, chemical processing, petrochemical and pharmaceutical. They are often used in piping systems carrying high temperature or high pressure fluids where the ability to absorb expansion and contraction is critical to maintain the integrity and safety of the system.
