Single Unrestrained
These expansion joints are made of one single bellows element with end connections.
Regardless of accessories, such as liners and covers, this model absorbs all of the movements in any one length of piping but it is mainly used to absorb axial movements.
It does not restrain pressure thrust so adequate anchors and guides must be provided and they can be used only in piping systems that incorporate correctly designed anchors and pipe alignment guides

Universal Unrestrained
Also known as the universal un-tied expansion joint this model is made up of two bellows joined together by a central pipe.
Although it can be used to absorb any combination of the three basic movements it is mainly used to absorb large lateral movements.
It does not restrain pressure thrust so adequate anchors and guides must be provided and they can be used only in a piping systems that incorporate correctly designed anchors and pipe alignment guides.
Features:
– Allow axial, lateral and angular movements
– Accept large amounts of lateral deflection
– Do not restrain pressure thrust
– Adequate anchors and guides must be provided
Universal Tied
This model is made up of two bellows joined together by a central pipe and a system of tie rods able to withstand the thrust produced by the internal pressure.
This model is used to absorb lateral movements in all planes.
The tie rods are provided in sets of two or more, equally distributed around the circumference of the expansion joint.
The amount of lateral deflection capability can be increased or decreased by simply changing the length of the spool pipe and the thermal expansion of the central pipe is taken by the bellows elements.
Features:
– Absorbs lateral movements in all planes
– Restrains pressure thrust
– Adequate anchors and guides must be provided
Gimbal Expansion Joint
Gimbal Expansion Joints are made of one single or double bellows element designed to allow angular movement in any plane by the use of two pairs of hinges affixed to a common floating gimbal ring.
The gimbal ring, hinged and pins are designed to restrain the pressure thrust due to internal pressure and shear forces.
A gimbal ring is either round or square.
Features:
– Absorbs angular movements in all planes
– Restrains pressure thrust forces
– Supports dead weight
– Avoid twisting the bellows
– No main anchors required
Type of Flexible Hose
Stainless steel Braided Hoses
Stainless steel hoses and assemblies are produced sizes range from 1/4″ to 20″ nominal bore, the stainless-steel hose range is available for general use in single/double braided to withstand greater pressure and vibration and to protect from abrasive attack.
Stainless steel hose is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, combining the advantages of high physical strength, long life and good corrosion characteristics. It is also suitable for conveying all types of liquids and gases within a temperature range of -200°C to +700°C.
Rubber Hoses
Flexible industrial hoses to convey powders, granular, liquid or gas products.
Our systems and services include the Oil & Gas sector, materials handling, beverage and food, chemical, agricultural, construction, rail, naval and steel industries.
Industrial hoses can reach continuous lengths up to 61 meters and can be fitted with any type of coupling.
Composite Hose
Stainless steel hoses and assemblies are produced sizes range from 1/4″ to 20″ nominal bore, the stainless-steel hose range is available for general use in single/double braided to withstand greater pressure and vibration and to protect from abrasive attack.
Stainless steel hose is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, combining the advantages of high physical strength, long life and good corrosion characteristics. It is also suitable for conveying all types of liquids and gases within a temperature range of -200°C to +700°C.
TEFLON (PTFE) Hose
PTFE hoses are an ideal problem solver for fluid transfer applications involving aggressive chemicals, extremes of temperature/pressure, extreme movement /vibration, or where hygiene is paramount.
The PTFE Hose liner is virtually inert to all chemicals and solvents. It is resistant to fuming Sulphuric and Nitric acids, Amines, Antioxidants and Methanol. PTFE hoses do not only have an excellent chemical resistance, they are also FDA approved.
Features:
• A wide operating temperature range (-60 C to +260 C)
• Inert to virtually all chemicals
• Resistance to weathering/ageing unaffected by UV light, resistant to oxidation, surface fouling and discoloration.
• Non-flammable
• Lightweight
• Superior flex fatigue life
• Low permeability
• Unlimited shelf life
• Solvent resistant
