On the construction and function, this type of Expansion Joint is very close to the hinged Expansion Joint. Basically, Gimbal structure assembled with floating gimbal ring, pin & arms must be designed to withstand against for bellows pressure thrust and extraneous force. Also, it should have a structure permitting bellows to absorb the angular rotation in any plane. To properly function this type of Expansion Joint on piping-work, pair of single gimbaled expansion joint, or additionally with one hinged expansion joint, must be united to absorb a large movement in similar with single hinged conjugated system.


1. Rated cycle life is 3000 cycles per EJMA 6th edition for any non-concurrent movement tabulated.
2. To combine axial, lateral movement refer to page 4.
3. Maximum axial extension movement is 50% of tabulated axial value.
4. To obtain greater movements of cycle life refer to page 4.
5. Catalogue pressure ratings are based upon a maximum bellows temperature 800¡ÆF
Actual operating temperature should always be specified.
6. Maximum test pressure: 11/2 ¡¿ maximum working pressure.
7. The overall length may be revised in accordance with the type of Expansion Joint and other attachment.

This type of Expansion Joint is constructed with two Gimbaled Expansion Joints for the purpose of absorbing lateral displacement in multi plane system. As the same as double hinged Expansion Joint, lengthening the intermediate pipe shell can make it become available to absorb more large lateral displacement. Also, if thermal growth from intermediate shell pipe is desired to be absorbed within this type of Expansion Joint itself, SAMSUNGFLEX is able to show a fitted design solution as well.
