About PTFE Expansion Joint Bellow
A flexible piping part called a PTFE expansion joint below is used in piping systems to correct for vibration, thermal expansion, and misalignment. It is constructed of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), a substance with a high level of resistance against corrosive, chemical, and high temperature attack. Convolutions are used in the below design to create space for axial, lateral, & angular movement. The PTFE expansion joint below is perfect for usage in harsh chemical conditions, such as those present in the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, & chemical processing industries.
