RUBBER EXPANSION BELLOWS
In order to offer a complete product range for our customers, Aphrodite Polyprene designs and supplies Rubber Expansion Billows. we are experienced and skilled manufacturers of Rubber Expansion Bellows. This ensures that our customers derive the more benefits from our Rubber Expansion Bellows.
A Rubber Expansion Billows is a flexible unit that is manufactured from natural or synthetic elastomers or fluoroplastics and, if necessary, a reinforcement of the bellows (steel, nylon or aramid) is added. Rubber Expansion Billows are the perfect solution for pipe systems to absorb movements, vibrations or noise, resulting in the significantly prolonged service life of the pipe work and connected equipment.
Application of Rubber Expansion Bellows
Rubber expansion bellows play a crucial role in industries where pipes and machinery are subject to constant movement and pressure fluctuations. They are commonly used in systems that transport fluids, gases, or chemicals, such as in refineries, oil and gas pipelines, and shipbuilding. These bellows help protect sensitive equipment by allowing flexibility, reducing stress on pipes, and preventing leaks. They are also used in pumps, compressors, and engines to absorb vibrations and thermal expansion, extending the life of the entire system. Their versatility and durability make them vital for maintaining the efficiency and safety of industrial operations. Rubber Expansion Billows finds wide application in different areas mentioned as follows :
Process Piping
The most vital use of our Expansion Joints is the protection of the Process Piping System. Some of the key features of this method are:
- Elastometric Expansion Joints help in reducing the noise and vibration which is caused due to forces in the pump or centrifuges as a shock absorber
- Handle different kinds of corrosive chemicals, abrasive slurries and reactive liquids or gases
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Besides, there are Teflon joints which are completely inert to all kinds of industrial chemicals and solvents
Power Plant Application
Our Rubber Expansion Bellows find wide application nuclear and fossil fuel plants for compensating for thermal expansion and contraction on condenser lines, steam turbines, condensate lines, exhaust lines, cooling water lines and aeration systems. Some of the salient features of these expansion bellows in the power plant application are:
- Reliability
- Long life
- Large size capability
- Easy accommodation for any application
Industrial Ducting Systems
Our comprehensive range of Rubber Expansion Bellows have been successfully installed in the Industrial Ducting Systems. The key features of these joints in the ducting systems are:
- Used where flutter, heavy vibration, wet or dry corrosive materials are encountered
- These expansion Bellows are ideally used as retrofitting and also in the new construction
- The range can be customized as per customers designs and specifications
Marine Systems
The range of Rubber Expansion Bellows are successfully used in the Marine Piping System by adding necessary motion and flexibility. Some of the key features of these Rubber Expansion Bellows in this sector are as follows:
- Insulating against transmission of sounds with elimination of destructiveness of electrolysis
- The joints come with a compact look
- Carries high resilience
- Causes low stress
- Completely resistant to corrosive effects of hot saline water, brine and brackish water
- Common usage are: over board discharge line between condenser and hull, auxiliary hull, air intake on diesel engine, flush and sanitary systems, ventilation lines, fire and bilge pumps etc.
Pollution & Wastewater Systems
We are offering a flawless range of Rubber Expansion Bellows which find wide and effective application in the Pollution & Wastewater Systems. These expansion Bellows are positively acclaimed for their different features like:
- Used in sewage treatment plants, water treatment plants and air scrubber systems
- Besides, these joints are also used in sludge pumps, secondary and raw sewage lines, centrifugal air blowers, scrub stacks etc
- Resistant to abrasion and corrosion
- Highly flexible in their usage.
