Application Expertise

We are proud to serve the aerospace, medical, semiconductor, oil services, vacuum, solar power, agriculture, commercial and other high-tech markets for edge welded bellows. Designing custom products for such technically diverse industries allows us to apply lessons learned from one application to another. Even though product design and custom requirements vary greatly across all industries, often development of one product leads to a better design approach for the next application.

We will design and manufacture bellows in a full range of diameters and thicknesses ranging from .394” (10mm) to 26” (660mm) in diameter in materials .002” (.05mm) to .036” (.91mm) thick*. In order to address custom requirements, BellowsTech design specialists review the following information before each job – allowing us to determine the exact custom capabilities needed to ensure your success.
