為(wei)常(chang)見的(de)(de)軸向(xiang)式(shi)波(bo)(bo)紋(wen)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)膨(peng)脹節，用(yong)(yong)在(zai)(zai)(zai)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)道(dao)上進行軸向(xiang)長度(du)補(bu)償。為(wei)了防止超(chao)過允(yun)許的(de)(de)補(bu)償量，在(zai)(zai)(zai)波(bo)(bo)紋(wen)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)兩(liang)端(duan)設(she)置(zhi)有(you)保護拉桿或保護環(huan)，在(zai)(zai)(zai)與它連接的(de)(de)兩(liang)端(duan)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)道(dao)上設(she)置(zhi)導向(xiang)支架。另外還(huan)有(you)轉角(jiao)式(shi)和橫向(xiang)式(shi)膨(peng)脹節，可用(yong)(yong)來補(bu)償管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)道(dao)的(de)(de)轉角(jiao)變(bian)形和橫向(xiang)變(bian)形。這類膨(peng)脹節的(de)(de)優點是節省空間，節約材料，便(bian)于(yu)標準化(hua)和批量生(sheng)產，缺點是壽命(ming)較短。波(bo)(bo)紋(wen)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)膨(peng)脹節一(yi)般用(yong)(yong)于(yu)溫度(du)和壓(ya)力不(bu)很高、長度(du)較短的(de)(de)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)道(dao)上。隨著波(bo)(bo)紋(wen)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)生(sheng)產技術水平的(de)(de)提高，這類膨(peng)脹節的(de)(de)應用(yong)(yong)范圍正在(zai)(zai)(zai)擴(kuo)大(da)。目前，波(bo)(bo)紋(wen)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)膨(peng)脹節可用(yong)(yong)在(zai)(zai)(zai)最高壓(ya)力6.0兆帕(pa)的(de)(de)管(guan)(guan)(guan)(guan)系中。
