Gimbal joint is capable of absorbing angular motion in all planes. The absorption includes a pair of hinges connected to a floating gimbal ring which has a very special advantages like absorption of pressure-thrust, supporting the dead weight of the system, transmission of wind & shear loads through the gimbal structure, prevention of torsion & reduction of forces on system. It is widely used for complex piping systems where proper anchoring & guiding may not be feasible. These joints usually in pairs will permit piping to float in relation to the terminal points.
