Metal bellows market Overview: Due to temperature changes, all materials expand and contract. The undesirable expansion of the pipes can be dangerous in the work environment and, to avoid such accidents, metallic bellows are incorporated in the pipes. As the pipe expands due to the increase in temperature, the bellows must resist the compression exerted by force. The metal bellows are designed as an elastic container to absorb pressure when compressed
