Product Description
A Universal bellows is comprised of two bellows connected by a common pipe. This type of assembly allows any combination of the three basic movements i.e. axial, lateral and angular. A universal bellows is generally used in cases with more lateral movement than can be absorbed by a single axial bellows, or when there is a limitation on the amount of lateral forces allowed by the connecting pipe system. The lateral movement capability of a universal bellows depends on the center pipe length. When using a universal bellows, anchors must be sufficiently designed to withstand the full thrust forces.
