Expansion Bellows

Questions & Answers for Expansion Bellows

At what minimum price can I purchase an expansion bellow?

You can purchase expansion bellows at a minimum rate of Rs 40-50 per piece. The price will increase as per the type, application, material quality, etc.

What is the purpose of expansion bellows?

Expansion bellows are the vital components of a complete pipe system and are extensively used in various industries where there is the occurrence of thermal expansion in pipe systems These joints offer the benefits of minimizing stresses in pipe systems produced by thermal expansion and decreasing pipe loads at connections to delicate and sensitive devices such as steam turbines or pumps. Overall, the expansion bellows help in increasing the service life of the pipe systems and minimizing the risk of additional maintenance and repair.

 

Where are expansion bellows in use?

Expansion bellows are used in many industries like-

• Chemical industries
• Process industry such as sugar factories
• Energy sector (nuclear power plants, power plants, district heating pipe systems, etc.)
• Steel plants
• Petrochemical industry (pumping stations, oil refineries, oil rigs, etc.)
• Exhaust systems and engines
• Paper and pulp industries
• LPG/ LNG tankers and carriers

These expansion joints are often fitted near heat exchangers, pumps, boilers, turbines, engines, condensers, and in long pipe systems and pipe ducts.
