This thermal expansion joint is constructed from Stainless Steel 316L for the end connections and internal liner, with bellows made from high-performance Inconel 625 alloy for superior thermal and corrosion resistance in demanding steam jacket applications.
The flexible bellows design absorbs linear thermal expansion and contraction caused by temperature fluctuations in steam jacket systems, preventing stress on piping and equipment while maintaining system integrity and preventing leaks.
The key components include the flexible bellows (typically Inconel 625), end connections for piping attachment (Stainless Steel 316L), and an internal liner that protects the bellows from flow turbulence and particulate damage in steam applications.
