What Are Hydroformed Bellows?

Hydroformed bellows are thin-wall metal bellows produced by applying internal hydraulic pressure to a metal tube inside a precision forming die. This process creates controlled corrugations that allow the bellows to absorb axial movement, compensate misalignment, reduce vibration, and provide reliable sealing in pressure, vacuum, and fluid systems.

They are widely used in aerospace, semiconductor equipment, medical devices, high-vacuum systems, oil and gas, automotive, and industrial applications.

Hydroformed Bellows in Various Materials and Geometries

Hydroformed Bellows Products We Offer

We provide hydroformed bellows, bellows assemblies, expansion joints, and flexible connection solutions for pressure, vacuum, fluid, and motion compensation applications.

Hydroformed Bellows

Available in welded or seamless structures, single-layer or multi-layer designs, with custom parameters.

Hydroformed Bellows Assembly

Bellows can be integrated with flanges, fittings, tubes, or end connections through welding, brazing, or other joining methods.

Hydroformed Bellows Expansion Joints

Designed to absorb thermal expansion, vibration, pressure fluctuation, and axial movement in piping or vacuum systems.

Hydroformed Bellows Couplings

Bellows couplings can provide flexible connection, vibration reduction, and misalignment compensation.

How Hydroformed Bellows Are Made?

Hydroformed bellows can be manufactured from welded tubes or seamless tube blanks depending on pressure, leakage, cost, and application requirements. Both processes create controlled corrugations through hydraulic forming while offering different advantages for specific operating conditions.
