Due to different annular convolutions, bellows are easily extensible & compressible and are appreciated for providing an excellent cushioning effect.SBR, Neoprene, NBR, Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPM, EPDM), etc.
Rubber bellows are widely used for transporting liquids, gases, or granular materials across various temperature ranges. They are commonly found in applications such as pipelines, automotive systems, HVAC, sewage disposal, and water treatment.
When designing rubber expansion bellows, consider the following factors:
- Pipeline Diameter and Medium: The size of the pipeline and the type of substance being conveyed.
- Temperature and Pressure Ratings: The required specifications for temperature and pressure.
- Movement Capabilities: The necessary flexibility and range of motion.
- Material and Standards: The material for the end flanges and the relevant drilling specifications.
