China PTFE Lined Bellow Expansion Joint Suppliers

A PTFE Lined Bellow Expansion Joint combines a metal bellows core with a seamless PTFE lining, engineered for corrosive pipeline systems requiring both displacement compensation and chemical resistance. Its structure features a stainless steel bellows with convolutions for flexibility, lined internally with PTFE—an inert material resistant to acids, alkalis, and solvents. This dual design offers the strength of metal bellows and the chemical protection of PTFE, ideal for harsh industrial environments.

The PTFE lining ensures a smooth, non-stick inner surface, preventing media buildup and contamination, while the metal bellows absorbs axial, lateral, and angular movements from thermal expansion or vibration. It comes with Flange or welded ends: flanges simplify installation, while welded connections enhance leak tightness for high-pressure applications. This makes it suitable for chemical processing, pharmaceutical, and wastewater treatment where standard metal joints may corrode.

In system integration, it works synergistically with components: a Rubber Expansion Joint dampens vibrations in lower-corrosion zones, while this lined joint handles corrosive media displacements. A Flexible Metal Hose adds routing flexibility. A Flange Adaptor bridges varying flange specs, ensuring compatibility. For maintenance, a Dismantling Joint eases access, and a Duckbill Check Valve prevents backflow of corrosive fluids.

Key advantages include chemical inertness, durability, and precise displacement control. The PTFE lining meets hygiene standards, suiting food-grade applications. The metal bellows withstands high pressures and temperatures, outperforming Rubber Joints in extreme conditions. By balancing strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance, it ensures reliable operation in aggressive environments, proving essential for safe, efficient pipeline performance in critical industrial infrastructure.

PTFE Lined Bellow Expansion Joint

‌PTFE lined bellow expansion joint‌ is a special design that lines the inside of the bellows with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) material. PTFE lined bellow expansion joints have excellent high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and aging resistance, are widely used in various piping systems, can withstand high temperature and chemical corrosion, and have a long service life‌. The main structure of the PTFE lined bellows expansion joint consists of an outer metal bellows and an inner PTFE lining. This design allows the expansion joint to move and rotate easily in various environments, while absorbing and releasing heat and vibration, reducing stress in the piping system and protecting the piping system from damage‌.

Application scenarios

chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing, thermal industry, etc.

Features

corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, aging resistance and high elasticity

Product Detail

PTFE lined bellow expansion joints are mainly composed of bellows, PTFE lining, connecting flange (or other connection methods such as welding pipes) and possible limit devices.

Bellows: As the main working element of the expansion joint, it absorbs the dimensional changes of the pipeline caused by thermal expansion and contraction through its flexible deformation.

The PTFE lining fits tightly to the inner wall of the bellows, and uses the corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and aging resistance of PTFE materials to effectively protect the medium flowing through the pipeline from corrosion.

The connecting flange is used to firmly connect the expansion joint to the pipeline system.

WHAT A CLIENT SAY?

PTFE lined bellow expansion joints have excellent corrosion resistance. Because PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) materials have extremely low chemical activity and can withstand erosion by a variety of corrosive media such as strong acids, strong alkalis, and organic solvents, this expansion joint is particularly suitable for highly corrosive pipeline systems. Customer feedback shows that in the chemical, pharmaceutical, food processing and other industries, PTFE lined bellow expansion joints can effectively prevent the medium from corroding the metal bellows and extend the service life of the equipment.
