Rubber expansion joint bellows are flexible components designed to absorb movements, vibrations, and misalignments in piping systems, particularly where there are thermal expansion or contraction, mechanical vibration, or seismic activity. Made from durable rubber materials such as EPDM, neoprene, or natural rubber, these bellows accommodate changes in pipe length and direction, reducing stress on adjacent piping and equipment. They provide a cost-effective solution to prevent damage, leaks, and premature failure in pipelines found in various industries including HVAC, plumbing, and power generation. Proper selection, installation, and maintenance of rubber expansion joint bellows ensure the integrity and longevity of piping systems.
