The Gimbal metal Expansion Joints are manufactured in a whay which allows them to handle angular movement in any plane by the use of two pairs of hinges affixed to a common floating gimbal ring. The gimbal ring, hinged and pins are designed to restrain the pressure thrust due to internal pressure and shear forces.
The gimbal ring is the key for the principe of the gimbal expansion joints - it can be either round or square. For round gimbals the torsional moment shall be considered and for square gimbals the instability due to the bending shall be considered
