為常見的(de)軸(zhou)向式波紋管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)膨(peng)(peng)(peng)脹(zhang)(zhang)(zhang)節，用(yong)(yong)(yong)在(zai)(zai)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)道(dao)上(shang)進行(xing)軸(zhou)向長度補(bu)償。為了防止超過允許的(de)補(bu)償量(liang)，在(zai)(zai)波紋管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)兩端設置(zhi)有保護(hu)拉桿或保護(hu)環，在(zai)(zai)與它連(lian)接(jie)的(de)兩端管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)道(dao)上(shang)設置(zhi)導(dao)向支架。另外還(huan)有轉(zhuan)角式和橫向式膨(peng)(peng)(peng)脹(zhang)(zhang)(zhang)節，可(ke)用(yong)(yong)(yong)來(lai)補(bu)償管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)道(dao)的(de)轉(zhuan)角變形(xing)和橫向變形(xing)。這類(lei)膨(peng)(peng)(peng)脹(zhang)(zhang)(zhang)節的(de)優點(dian)是節省空間，節約材料，便(bian)于標(biao)準化(hua)和批(pi)量(liang)生產，缺(que)點(dian)是壽(shou)命(ming)較短。波紋管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)膨(peng)(peng)(peng)脹(zhang)(zhang)(zhang)節一般用(yong)(yong)(yong)于溫度和壓力(li)不很高、長度較短的(de)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)道(dao)上(shang)。隨著波紋管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)生產技術水平的(de)提高，這類(lei)膨(peng)(peng)(peng)脹(zhang)(zhang)(zhang)節的(de)應用(yong)(yong)(yong)范圍正在(zai)(zai)擴大。目前，波紋管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)膨(peng)(peng)(peng)脹(zhang)(zhang)(zhang)節可(ke)用(yong)(yong)(yong)在(zai)(zai)最高壓力(li)6.0兆帕的(de)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)系中。
