Metal expansion joint for one axis angular movement with fixed flanges.

Hinged Metal Expansion Joint

The main mission of the Hinged metal expansion joint (simple metal expansion joint for 1-axis for angular movement SSA and SFA) is to absorb angular expansion movements with rotation on a single axis both thermal and mechanical origin.

This hinged expansion joints or simple metal expansion joint for 1-axis  is composed of a single bellow of several waves in the form of “U”.

These waves are made by one or more metal sheets longitudinally welded and shaped hydraulically or mechanically.

Due to its configuration, the designer must bear in mind that these models DO NOT transmit pressure stresses to the fixed points and guides of the piping system.
