In an axial sleeve, the fibers embedded in the elastomer run axially to the deflection direction. In a cross-ply bellows the two layers of reinforcing elements are placed at an angle to each other. Unlike in a fabric, these elements are not connected.
The ZAX bellows combine the benefits of great torsion decoupling and dimensional stability. An innovative bonding technology and the highly adhesive fibers enable a precision manufacturing process. The outer rubber compound ensures high performance as well as durability.
