Metal Expansion Joint Bellows

Often, an application will require a connector to isolate noise and vibration, relieve stresses on equipment, and handle both high temperatures and axial motion. Rubber connectors will have relatively low pressure ratings at high temperatures. Braided connectors can offer high pressure/high temperature capabilities, but do not of fer any axial movement capabilities. Pressure ratings of bellows pump connectors are virtually unaffected by high system temperatures and these special connectors are able to abs Braided connectors can offer high pressure/high temperature capabilities, but do not of fer any axial movement capabilities. Pressure ratings of bellows pump connectors are virtually unaffected by high system temperatures and these special connectors are able to absorb limited amounts of axial travel and lateral offset. The special design of Series BPC and Series BPC-R connectors includes multi-ply stainless steel bellows to provide long life and isolation in high-frequency applications. Three built-on tie rods prevent over-extension in high pressures and eliminate jobsite installation of rod assemblies. Special rubber grommets are installed on each end of rods so that noise and vibration is not transmitted across the steel rods.
