Why Choose Bellows and Expansion Joints

The main purpose of these products is to prolong the life of your machinery and ensure they are performing at their very best. When movement is not absorbed by the piping system itself, expansion joints are the perfect solution as they absorb vibrations from equipment movement, pressure pulsations as well as thermal growth. Any movement including axial, lateral and angular movements in all directions are controlled via expansion joints and once fitted, they require no maintenance at all. You don’t need a lot of space either while load and temperature loss is also kept to a minimum. At Arcflex, our manufacturing range includes expansion joints of the following types:

  • Gimbals
  • Jacketed
  • Axial
  • Lateral
  • Hinged
  • Pressure Balanced
  • Universal Metal Bellows
  • Double Bellows
  • Externally Pressurised
  • Bellow Repairs
