Rubber bellows function as &#;dust boots&#; to seal out dust and other light-duty environmental contaminants while enabling a predetermined range of motion for the protected part. Rubber boots are common in industrial and automotive applications. (In automotive applications, the bellows may be called a gaiter. This is a type of bellows that is often used in automotive applications to protect the moving parts of a vehicle&#;s suspension system from dirt and debris.)

Rubber bellows may function as tubing or ducting, however, bellows are most commonly used as a protective cover.

Depending on the manufacturing process, molded bellows can have an extended resting position, which means convolutions are extended in the resting position. For an example, visualize a convoluted drainage pipe. Other bellows may have a &#;closed&#; resting position, which means the bellows convolutions are tighter together (naturally compressed) when in a relaxed state. 

Many molded rubber bellows tend to have a large extended-to-retracted ratio, and the overall bellows are stiffer. 

Dynatect has a variety of manufacturing processes to produce molded bellows in either style. Dynatect&#;s Gortiflex rubber bellows have an excellent extended-to-retracted ratio, meaning the tight compression can satisfy a more dynamic range of motion.

Molded bellows typically have a more rounded peak at each convolution:

Other rubber (technically elastomer-coated materials) bellows are made by sealing or stitching alternating inner and outer rings of material, resulting in convolutions that are &#;sharper&#; or more v-shaped. The latter tends to have a more &#;industrial&#; look, although Dynatect&#;s Thermiseal bellows are exceptionally neat in appearance.

Sometimes bellows are referred to as &#;convoluted tubing&#;. Flange and collar options, backup plates, and worm-gear clamps satisfy common mounting requirements. While mounting accessories may be specified at the time of order, it is best to consider the mounting requirements at the time of quote.
