The optimum design for bellows is the heat-sealed version. The cover material and guide frames made from PVC are permanently joined. The connection of the bellows material and the guide frames ensures maximum loading capacity and absolute tightness against liquids such as cooling or grinding fluids. For special requirements, e.g. resistance to temperatures of up to 752 °F (400 °C), stitched bellows can be used. Heat-sealed bellows can be manufactured in widths of up to 3 meters.
We make bellows with round, oval or rectangular (with rounded off corners) cross-sections using a special sewing method. Support rings will be used to meet special requirements and applications. Due to their robust design, these bellows have a long and reliable service life, even under extreme mechanical and dynamic strain. The temperature resistance of these bellows can be increased to approx. 752 °F (400 °C) when using an aluminized fabric.

End frames

End frames, mostly made from steel
or aluminium, connect the bellows
with the machine. Hennig offers
various fastening solutions for the
adaptation to different bellows and
machine interfaces.
