High Pressure Bellows

High Pressure Bellows can simply be termed as thin walled cylindrical components, with their surface area featuring a corrugated structure. As a result of this corrugated structure, high pressure bellows are very flexible during lateral, axial and angular deformation. These are generally manufactured from thin walled tubes through the process of hydraulic shaping, with the materials used for fabricating these ranging from exotic metals to alloys such as brass. Moreover, depending on the requirement, these bellows are created either with one or multiple walls, which differ in their flexibility and areas of usage.


Super Industrial Lining Pvt. Ltd. is a Vadodara, Gujarat, India based organization indulged in manufacturing, supplying and exporting of lined piping systems, lined valves, glass lined reactor accessories, slight flow indicators and many more products. Established in the year 2009, the company has been growing by leaps and bounds and is now one of the leading firms in India in this segment. Furthermore, it's products are also widely demanded in countries such as Malaysia, with the country being the organization's largest market for export.


Factors that determine the selection of High Pressure Bellows for a particular application :-
  • Temperature.
  • Pressure.
  • Size.
  • End fittings.
  • Type of liquid material passing around it.

Features of High Pressure Bellows :-
  • These are resistant to corrosion, abrasion and pressure.
  • Also resistant to impacts and shocks.
  • High pressure bellows optimally compensate for movements and vibrations.
  • These are designed to be leak proof, without requiring any mechanical seals.
  • These have a long functional life and require minimal maintenance.
  • High pressure bellows work flawlessly in all weather conditions.

Some facts about High Pressure Bellows :-
  • These are generally manufactured in various sizes ranging from 15NB to 600 NB.
  • Virgin PTFE is used to manufacture these bellows, the reason for this is the beneficial attributes of PTFE such as low spring rate and almost an unlimited flexlife.
  • The most important aspect in the design of high pressure bellows is the need to find a careful balance between wall thickness and bellow geometry.
  • After manufacturing, these undergo various tests such as internal/external pressure testing, internal external hydro test, helium leak testing etc. to ensure zero defects and a hassle free functional life.

Antistatic PTFE Lined Valves

As is common knowledge, valves are one of the most commonly used equipments across various industries such as power generation, mining and many more. Due to the fact that valves perform heavy duty work, there is always a chance of these getting damaged because of factors such as fatigue, pressure etc. Nowadays, with increasing advancement in technology, manufacturers worldwide are evolving their valve designs, making them more efficient and robust. One of the designs is the Antistatic PTFE Lined Valves, which is gradually becoming the preferred choice in many industries.


Super Industrial Lining Pvt. Ltd. is a 2009 established firm that is indulged in Manufacturing and Supplying of Antistatic PTFE Lined Valves. Its other products include lined piping systems, slight flow indicators, glass lined reactor accessories etc. Along with being a manufacturer and supplier, super industrial lining pvt. ltd. is also a leading exporter, with Malaysia as its biggest export market. The firm's current annual sales stand at INR 12 crores and is poised for unprecedented growth.


Why the name Antistatic PTFE Lined Valves ?

In the past, the buildup and discharge of static electricity in the valves was one of the major reasons for their failing, sometimes even resulting in fire. To prevent any such untoward incidents, these valves have been made anti static in nature. Along with it, these are also lined with a fluorocarbon solid named polytetrafluoroethylene or PTFE. Lining with PTFE gives the valves specific attributes such as reduced friction and wear. To put it succinctly, all of these design tweaking ensure that the Antistatic PTFE Lined Valves have several advantages over other valves.


Features of Antistatic PTFE Lined Valves :-
  • Reduced buildup and discharge of static electricity.
  • Very little pressure drop during functioning.
  • Low torque.
  • Increased tolerance to pressure and high temperatures.
  • Long functional life with minimal maintenance required.
  • Resistance to corrosion, abrasion and weathering.

Major application areas of Antistatic PTFE Lined Valves :-
  • Coloring, varnishing and dyeing factories.
  • Food processing industry.
  • Petrochemical industry.
  • Waste water treatment plants.
