Square bellows (or rectangular bellows) are non-circular metallic expansion joints designed primarily for ducting systems or low-pressure applications , especially where round bellows are not feasible due to space or design constraints.
Shape - Square or rectangular cross-section
Material - Usually stainless steel or Inconel
Movement - Type Axial, lateral, and angular (based on design)
Pressure Rating - Typically low-pressure applications
Flexibility - More flexible at corners (miters or rounded corners)
Common Applications
Air & flue gas ducts
Exhaust systems
Furnace connections
Ventilation and HVAC ducts
Industrial dust and fume extraction systems
1. Mitered Corner Square Bellows
* Made with sharp or beveled corners
* Cost-effective but can be stress-prone at corners
2. Round-Corner Square Bellows
* Curved corners to reduce stress concentration
* Longer life, slightly more expensive
