Rubber Bellows are an expandable/collapsible component to protect foreign particles. The bellow material should be well suited with outside (exposed to Atmosphere & ozone resistance) & inside conditions (Oil, grease & lubricants). The rubber bellows are a very important component of automobiles, especially the steering system of cars. Designed to keep dirt and debris out of the steering rack, rubber bellow is a cylindrical vessel that comes in a large variety of sizes, shapes, construction, and elastomer coated fabrics/ rubbers to suit diverse application requirements of vehicles.

Description

Due to different annular convolutions, bellows are easily extensible & compressible and are appreciated for providing an excellent cushioning effect. Depending upon the end-use requirement rubber bellows are manufactured using various synthetic polymers such as SBR, Neoprene, NBR, Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPM, EPDM), etc.
