Rubber Bellows act as extension joints of rotating gears like pump, pipe works and chillers. They are highly flexible and hence fit easily to complete some misaligned installation allowing lateral, axial and angular movement. This is very similar to metal...

Couplings are used to attach two shafts at their ends. Precisely, these are mechanical devices that are used to transmit the torque in between the two non-coaxial shafts. Generally, gear couplings include a flexible joint that is joined to each of the sha...
