TOMBO™ No. 9999-NA
NA BELLOW-Q™
NA BELLOW-Q is a non-metallic flexible expansion joint that combines inorganic fiber cloth and PTFE and is used for various pipes and smoke airways such as ducts. It absorbs expansion and contraction, deformation, and movement from the heat swelling, vibrations, and pressure of large-diameter ducts and pipes.

Forte
NA BELLOW-Q, which is made from these materials, performs excellently as a non-metallic flexible expansion joint.
It has a low reactive force and enables the easy designing of ducts.
It can be manufactured without dimensional restrictions.
It is lightweight and easy to handle.
It offers excellent corrosion and heat resistance.
Steel structure materials can be used for the holding plate.
It has low fluid resistance.
The adhesive offers excellent weather resistance.
It shortens the duration of work.
It offers good value for money.
Structure
The installation structure of BELLOW-Q has two types: a flare type and a belt type. The flare type is indicated with an F and the belt type is indicated with a B.
The flare type is subject to flare processing on both ends. The part that comes into contact with the fluid consists of bellows, and so the flare type is lighter than the belt type and the area between the surfaces can be made smaller.
The belt type is suitable for hot-temperature applications where it is also used with an insulation blanket. Meanwhile, as its structure allows for easy installation, it is also useful for repairing existing metal bellows.
*For NAQ-099, as well as the standard product, Nichias also offers products with custom-designed structures.
Composition
Based on the basic structure of NAQ-025, which uses a PTFE film as a sealing layer, Nichias offers NAQ-025P, which uses a protective fabric for the inside of the sealing layer, and a type that also uses heat-insulation material for the bellows. Nichias also offers custom-designed structures (NAQ-099) to suit your usage conditions.
