In 2022, the global metal bellows market is anticipated to be worth US$ 1,968 million. Furthermore, as more industries adopt metal bellows, the overall demand for metal bellows is expected to expand at a 6% CAGR from 2022 to 2032, completing a market worth US$ 3,550 million by 2032.
The advantages of metal bellows over non-metallic ones are manifold. The demand for metal bellows is growing all over the world. The uses of metal bellows appear various in the industry such as pipe junctions where contraction occurs when pressure is loaded from another side upon any elastic vessel. Metal bellows are also used as flexible sealing elements in vacuum technology. Major fields of application are vacuum valve stem seals and vacuum sealing.

Bellows come through as ‘flexible seats’, mainly due to the fact that they have a pretty predictable spring rate due to elasticity. The manufacturing sector couldn’t be imagined without bellows, especially in flexible joints, vacuum seals, accumulators, and likewise. Welded bellow holds the largest market share due to better spring rate, resistance against chemicals, leak rate stroke, and likewise.
Metal bellows are capable of easily absorbing thermal and mechanical movement, and have a longer life-span. They are well-known for safeguarding against higher temperature. The tensile strength possessed by metal bellows is unparalleled. Those dealing with pipe joints prefer metal bellows as they help in curbing movement caused due to equipment movement, thermal fluctuation, and pressure pulsation or vibration.
Metal bellows are being preferred in traditional boilers, expansion joints, gas turbines, fuel gas duct systems, mechanical seals, thermal expansion tanks, engine exhaust systems, and steam turbines.
At the same time, it needs to be noted that metal bellows are not conducive to the food & beverage vertical, basically due to the fact that the convolutions of bellows result in bug traps, which is actually tough to clean at the time of operational processes. Future Market Insights has walked through these facts with future perspectives in its latest market study entitled ‘Metal Bellows Market’.
