MATERIALS

The basic material to be used for the moulding of the bellows, have to meet the following characteristics:
- efforts resistant
- corrosion resistant
- weldability
For these reasons, the material more used is the AISI 321 stainless steel (max. temp. 800°C).For superior values of temperature or corrosion it is used AISI 316/316L stainless steel, or alloy steels as Inconel, Incoloy, Hastelloy, Nichel and Monel.
