A Hexagonal Axial Bellows typically refers to a type of expansion joint or flexible bellows used in piping systems to absorb axial movement (compression and extension) while maintaining a hexagonal outer shape for structural or aesthetic purposes.
Heres what it typically contains or consists of:
Material: Usually made of stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant alloys.
Function: Provides flexibility and allows axial movement by compressing or stretching.
Shape: The flexible corrugations can be circular internally, even if the outer shape is hexagonal.
Types: Flanged, welded, or threaded ends.
Purpose: Connects the bellows to the pipeline or equipment.
Rings or Covers: May be internal or external rings to prevent deformation under pressure or vacuum.
Hexagonal Casing: In "hexagonal axial bellows," the outer casing or cover may be hexagonally shapedïthis could be structural, protective, or aesthetic.
Internal Sleeve: Prevents flow-induced vibrations or erosion, especially in high-velocity systems.
Common materials include:
Stainless Steel (SS304, SS316)
Inconel
Hastelloy
Bronze or Brass (for specific applications)
Ensures leak-tight connection between the bellows and pipe flanges.
HVAC systems
Industrial piping
Exhaust systems
Chemical and petrochemical industries
