Stainless steel bellowsoffer the best price to performance ratio of any material. Stainless steel bellows maintain their high strength capability and custom design with varying thicknesses. Henan Liwei has superior welding practices to ensure that the bellows assembly performs to our customers’ requirements. Within the stainless steel bellows family, Henan Liwei offersAM350*, 316L, 347, 321 and 304L SS.
AM350 is a high-strength alloy that produces highly accurate and repeatable results with an operating range from -100°F to 800°F. The metal is slightly magnetic and is used in non-acidic environments.
For cryogenic and non-magnetic applications, Henan Liwei prefers 316L stainless steel material. It operates from -420° up to 800°F. 316L material also offers better corrosion resistance for acidic applications.
321, 347 and 304L stainless steels are available through BellowsTech, yet are typically used for legacy, drop in replacement applications.
Henan Liwei manufactures its bellows by stamping metal diaphragms, welding inside diameters to form convolutions, and finally welding the outside diameters. This creates a very strong, yet flexible mechanical conduit compatible with liquids and gases. Various diaphragm thickness are available as well as two-ply construction for higher pressures.
Henan Liwei can build its assemblies using stainless steel from ultra-high vacuum (UHV) to positive pressures. Whether our customer requires an actuator, volume compensator, expansion joint, or flexible seal, Henan Liwei can design and manufacture to customer specifications.
With custom capabilities of size, shape, and connections, the flexibility of BellowsTech stainless steel bellows is endless. Henan Liwei can also offer designs configured from ourstandard sizesas well. Over eighty standard diaphragm sizes makes finding the right fit is easy, timely, and cost-effective. Add any type of machined flange or end piece connection to the bellows assembly in order to make installation simple.
